Invivo’s story began when our two Kiwi Cofounders – old school friends Rob and Tim – got together in a bar in London to talk wine. How to make it better. How to cut through the fluff that the traditional wine companies seem to love so much. We always believed in the power of a strong brand, so we decided then and there to build a business that let us create one and have fun along the way.

Invivo is one of New Zealand’s leading producers – we have won over 600 medals and trophies since we launched in 2008. We produce wine here in New Zealand and have operations in New Zealand, Australia, Italy, France and Argentina. We also produce spirits in Ireland with our local West Cork partners.

By focusing on our customers’ needs and on innovation, we have managed to grow our business rapidly. In 2015 we were New Zealand’s first equity crowdfunded wine company and now (after two more successful raises) we are now one of the Southern Hemisphere’s largest crowdfunded companies. We are based in one of New Zealand’s oldest wineries, where we continue to turn some of the world’s best grapes into wine that’s picking up fans from Cork to New York.

Traditional winemaking is all about the way things have always been done, cobweb-filled cellars and old guys talking about complex oak noses. We’re not about that. From the way we’ve funded our company to the way we tell our story to the world and the way we source our wine, Invivo is not your great-uncle’s winery. (Unless your great-uncle is one of our 800+ investors, in which case, cheers, Unc!)

Our Invivo range is our original range and is all about taking some of the elegance from the old world and putting that style into our amazing grapes. The current range features a Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir & Rosé.

In 2014 we launched a Sauvignon Blanc with legendary TV megastar Graham Norton after we learned he was a fan of Sauvignon Blanc and our wine. This quickly expanded into a multiple-award winning range, which includes Rosé, Prosecco, Prosecco Rosé, Shiraz, Malbec, three Irish Gins and an Irish Vodka. Learn all about this successful partnership and the range here.

In 2019 we launched a wine collaboration with New York icon Sarah Jessica Parker! Five vintages in, SJP is hands on, tasting and blending each new vintage of wine with Tim and Rob and attending business meetings. The wines have won a slew of awards and accolades – visit Invivo X, SJP for more details.

It’s all part of our vision: We bring people together so great things can happen.
