Home to some of Marlborough's most quintessential Sauvignon Blanc.
Welcome to
Jeffries Family Estate
Set in the sought-after Lower Wairau subregion, we produce premium Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc known for its fresh, vibrant flavours and distinctive tropical minerality - thanks to the coastal soils of the Dillons Point area.
Generations in the making:
from sheep to Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
For five generations, our family has been farming in Marlborough, beginning way back in 1848, when our forebears first arrived in the region.
The beginnings of Jeffries Family Estate as it stands today came in the 1910s, when a parcel of land was purchased at Dillons Point, close to the region’s windswept east coast. Three generations of Jeffries put their mark on the land, farming sheep and cattle and growing crops and pasture, before its potential for growing premium Marlborough wine became clear.
Current family patriarch Tom Jeffries, together with his wife Suzanne, planted the first grapes on the Jeffries Family Estate in 1999.
They continue to work alongside their children and grandchildren to grow top-quality Marlborough sauvignon blanc today. In 2024, the first members of the sixth generation of the Jeffries family planted their own grapes on the plots.
As a family, we love to nurture the land that has nurtured us for so many years - the place has been ‘home’ for so long. We take pride in what we do and it shows in every bottle.
