FRAMINGHAM

Framingham is a boutique winery and aromatic specialist, hand-crafting wines from some of the oldest and best vineyards that the world-renowned Marlborough region has to offer. Framingham Wines Limited derives its name from the village of Framingham, located in Southern Norfolk in the UK. This small village was the ancestral home of the company’s founder, Rex Brooke-Taylor. The original vines of the Framingham estate are believed to be the first to be planted in Marlborough on phylloxera resistant rootstock.

All of the Framingham wines are made with care, taking time to bring out the full flavours and subtle nuances the environment offers – minerality, mouth-filling texture, complex flavours, and elegant structure. Framingham has established a reputation for producing outstanding aromatic varietal wines and their Rieslings are a trademark of the winery's excellence.

Turns the grapes into wine. Brownie grew up on a South Otago sheep and beef farm/commune that worships the humble ‘swede’. He developed a taste for wine in a dingy flat in Riccarton Christchurch whilst completing an esteemed degree in Leisure Studies, he decided the wine industry sounded more fun! With 20 vintages under his belt, the love is real. He is known for singing out loud (randomly) and at inappropriate moments…a syndrome that is yet to be diagnosed. Winemaker, lead singer, and disappears to the beach with the surf is up.
