About The Better Half
The Better Half wines are grown and made in Marlborough, at the top of New Zealand’s south Island; the edge of the earth, home to dreamers, pioneers and aviators. It’s the place that put a tiny south pacific nation on the world wine map: a region of sunny, dry, summers and crisp, clear winters creating the perfect growing conditions for our tiny, delicious parcels of happiness. We pour our love for the land and the fruit we grow into creating wines to share amidst the banter and laughter with friends and family.
Who is the better half?
Growing up in rural South Canterbury in a family with a long history of aviation, it was only a matter of time before George Elworthy got the flying bug himself. He’s now a part-time pilot, amateur aircraft restorer, angel investor, and avid mountain biker. He’s also an experienced winemaker but that’s a bit hard to fit on a business card, so he’s content to be known as “the better half”.
