Seresin Estate

Marlborough Michael Seresin is an extremely successful cinematographer as well as being the proud proprietor of a wine estate which has quickly become one of the best and most highly regarded wineries in New Zealand. Established in 1996 the aim at Seresin has been to grow grapes and make wine in the most natural way possible and because of this Brian Bicknell the winemaker has adapted organic principles since its inception but more intensely from 1998 onwards. This is not for marketing purposes, but purely out of the beliefs and principles long held by Michael Seresin himself. The entrance to Seresin Estate is marked by distinctive monolithic rocks with a bold copper coloured handprint. The hand image is the estate symbol and is based on an actual print of owner Michael Seresin's hand. This is the symbol that adorn's the wine label on all the estate wines.
