What’s your favourite thing about working at Indevin?

Getting to meet people from all over the world and sharing our wine with them.

What makes Indevin such a special place to work?

The opportunities that I’ve been given to try so many new things, while discovering and learning new skills.

What was your most memorable vintage?

It would have to be our 2020 Covid “Coachella” vintage.

What advice would you give to someone joining Indevin?

No matter what job you’re doing, do it well. People will notice.

The magnificent Ngakirikiri. It’s very close to perfection.
