Saint Clair Family Estate Shine in Asia
Saint Clair Family Estate is recognised as a leading New Zealand wine producer with global wine exports to over 50
worldwide markets including many parts of Asia.
China has become an important growing market with huge potential for Saint Clair Family Estate who started exporting
there in 2006 and now exports to all the major cities. Recent show success in China will assist to secure Saint Clair’s
brand positioning within this rapidly changing and dynamic market.
Shanghai International Wine Challenge has just awarded Saint Clair Family Estate an outstanding three trophies.

Saint Clair is committed to continued growth in the Asian markets, illustrated by close working relationships with good
distributors, the provision of a quality product, strong participation in trade shows and consistent winemaker visits to
the market.
Hamish Clark, Senior Wine Maker for Saint Clair, who has just returned from Vin Expo in Hong Kong, comments, “It is the
quality distribution that is a key essential ingredient to developing any brand in this market. The distributors we work
with throughout Asia are quickly becoming Saint Clair brand champions. They are committed to our product and through
educating consumers and telling the Saint Clair story, they are continuing to further grow our brand within this
challenging market.”
Asian markets represent significant opportunity for Saint Clair Family Estate and the recent trophies and gold medals in
China, combined with increased presence in a market in its evolution phase, will ensure the family-owned Marlborough
wine brand will continue to grow and be successful.
