Nobilo Wine Group Ltd
So rich in history, Nobilo wines are proudly hailed as some of New Zealand's most respected pioneering wine brands. A Croat immigrant, Nikola Nobilo, whose family history and winemaking background stretches back over 300 years to the Adriatic island of Korcula off the Dalmatian coast, led the way. The history of the company in New Zealand goes back to the early 1940's when this Croatian family, landed in New Zealand. They settled in Huapai, West Auckland situated in the North Island of New Zealand, and started planting vines in 1943. With over 300 years of European wine history, this family effectively persuaded and guided the NZ wine industry away from hybrid grape varieties and fortified wines, to a higher level of quality wine, now recognised and appraised by all markets.
The key House of Nobilo brands, namely White Cloud, Fernleaf, Fall Harvest and Icon, have always been market leaders with style initiative and packaging innovation, winning local and international packaging awards each year.
In September 1998, Nobilo Vintners, then a family company with four generations of wine expertise, purchased another successful New Zealand winery, the thriving Selak's operation, to form a strong association within the New Zealand wine industry. The Selak family, another early pioneering family from Croatia, came to New Zealand in 1934, also bringing with them many years of wine experience. Today the Selaks brands (Premium Selection and Founders Reserve), including Drylands boast an enviable reputation both in New Zealand and overseas.
In mid-2000, Australia's second largest wine producer, BRL Hardy, purchased Nobilo Vintners, which later merged with Constellation Brands Inc. in 2003. The resultant global wine company, Constellation Wines, now incorporates the parent company's wine interests in the USA, Australia, UK/Europe, South America and New Zealand.
