Help reverse climate change

There's only one thing we're more passionate about than producing beautiful wine… the planet! So we're making an effort to use sustainable practices in every part of our business. We've teamed up with CarbonClick, a kiwi company making it easy for people and businesses to help fight climate change.

CarbonClick looks like a green button at checkout. When a customer clicks, it adds a small contribution to their transaction, to purchase carbon offsets. These offsets balance out the carbon emissions of the purchase. CarbonClick funds forest restoration, tree planting, and renewable energy projects in NZ and around the world.We're proud to be part of the fight against climate change. We'll be making our own contributions, and changing our practices to reduce our carbon footprint. We hope you'll join us by choosing CarbonClick with your purchase.

We’re not here to blend in

We match Swandris with sequins. We choose integrity over easy. We believe heart is a better measure of value than heritage. We think progress and change is more important than following the rules. That means we make wine not only true to nature - but true to our own: who we are, where we’re from and what we believe in. The result of standing true to what matters to us, is to bring you a wine that stands out from the rest.

"91/100. The first commercial release of this wine. 5% barrel-fermented with lengthy maturation in oak. Rich, textural sauvignon with toast, nutty lees and ginger flavours occupying centre stage with guava, grapefruit and passion in the background."

Bob Campbell MW- The Real Review

"Crafted by exciting young winemaker Alice Rule, this is classic Marlborough Sauvignon with a winning twist and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Lovely notes of lemongrass, bashed basil,  and jalapeño burst out of the glass..." 

Yvonne Lorkin - Winefriend

You know a wine is good... like really good when you start speaking to it! And that's exactly what I did with my first sip.. "oh my god you're beautiful". 

Rebecca Hartley-Smith

"Alice is one of thee most genuine, high energy and passionate people you'll ever meet. She brings fantastic wine with integrity to the table and is quite clearly a producer to be valued. Great morals, great wine."

Wine Reviews

"Looking for something that can fire you up about a variety where you think you have tasted it all? Rich with tropical fruit, round without being cloying, lean where it gives depth. This is a wine that should be tried to get you back into Sauvignon."

The level of craft behind 3sixty2 extends long beyond the wine itself. These beautiful, testing, proud moments have been captured by Ryan McCauley to illustrate our journey to share with you the memories we make each vintage. Check out his work, he is a good bugger and a very special part of the 3sixty2 team.

This isn’t just another bottle.

It’s a story, rooted in heritage, inspired by the possibilities, and driven by fresh thinking. 

To discover our story for yourself, you won’t find us on grocery shelves. You’ll find us in the places where real customer connections are made, where memories take shape over restaurant tables, and where people with a passion like ours want to share it with people like you.

Producing less than 4500 bottles a year, we think big, without losing the beauty and prestige that comes with staying small.

A play-on-words is one thing.

A play-on-numbers, however, holds meaning deeper than the roots of the vines that are harvested for the very purpose of our trade.

Everything we do at 3Sixty2 is driven by the same passion for wine that James Busby, the pioneer of viticulture in Australasia, once had. Fire and flare delivers more than just a bottle of Sauvignon. It is the sustainability of getting the very best out of our vines, it is the amenity of bringing us together, and it is the enjoyment of what makes up an essential part of our lives. The legacy of wine making in New Zealand is pivotal to who we are and why we do what we do.”
