Sacred Hill Wines Redesign

Inspired by the landscape and nature of their vineyard locations in Marlborough and Hawke's Bay, Sacred Hill's wines have undergone a stunning redesign

Wine should be all about the aroma and taste of the liquid in the bottle, but like food, we are first of all seduced by sight. We’ve always been fans of Sacred Hill’s iconic New Zealand wines, but with a new redesign, we’re even more in love.

Inspired by the raw, natural beauty of the brand’s Hawke’s Bay and Marlborough vineyards, the new bottles feature illustrations of rivers, rolling hills and incredible terrain. “At Sacred Hill we know that great wines begin in the vineyard,” says Sacred Hill managing director, David Mason. “We have several vineyards in two of the world’s premium wine regions, so it’s fitting to pay homage to the land with our new look.”
