Father and son team Dayne & Marc Sherwood blend two generations of winemaking philosophy into every wine they create. Dayne brings more than 35 years of traditional experience and Marc brings the enthusiasm and innovation of an up-and-coming young gun.
Backed by thousands of Angels, they’re making elegant wines from their vineyards in the stunning Waipara Valley, New Zealand. Each one packed with personality and a strong social and environmental conscience.
Their wines, Vinity Generations, is dedicated to the crew who’ve done the hard yards in the vineyard, the evolution of winemaking and, most of all, to you who have made these wines possible.
Nicky’s parents, Peter and Felicity, chose the tiny, unique Waipara Valley in New Zealand’s South Island to plant their longed for vineyard. Pruning the vines on crisp winter mornings ignited Nicky’s love affair with wine.
The Parish family continued to grow grapes for the best producers in New Zealand for 10 years, but yearned for greater security and their own name on the label. With Nicky now a seasoned winemaker, Angels gave her the amazing opportunity to work with and learn from her father.
To this day, Angels allow Nicky to grow the business and spend time with young family. With Peter taking a well-earned governorship role, Nicky’s picking up the baton managing more of the business. Although Peter is never far away (the local golf course) if she needs some advice!
