Official Information:
Steeped in history, Nobilo wines are proudly acclaimed 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 in Europe, 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. The Nobilo family effectively persuaded and guided the New Zealand wine industry away from hybrid grape varieties and fortified wines, to a higher level of quality wine, now recognised and appraised by all markets.

Key House of Nobilo brands, namely White Cloud, Fernleaf, Fall Harvest, Regional Collection and Icon, have always been market leaders with style initiative and packaging innovation, winning local and international intrinsic and packaging awards each year. In September 1998, Nobilo Vintners, then a family company with four generations of wine proficiency, purchased another successful New Zealand winery at the time, the thriving Selaks operation, to form a strong wine association.

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.
