Jackson Estate

Jackson Estate embodies the very best of Marlborough New Zealand, the essence of sauvignon blanc. Jackson estate is a special place, a testament to the vision and determination of the Stichbury & Jackson families who have farmed the land on the Wairau River plain at Jacksons Road for more than 160 years.

Since planting their pioneering vineyards, established three decades ago, time, tide and fortune have smiled on Jackson Estate and the unparalled affinity  between Marlborough and fine wine has been spectacularly realised. 

John Stichbury

As the founder and managing director of Jackson Estate, John overseas  every aspect of the business, from viticulture and winemaking, to marketing and public relations. A trained engineer John is a dedicated advocate of the local wine industry, a founding member of the NZ screwcap initiative and contributes to a number of industry organisations.

John works hard to ensure Jackson Estate practices sustainable viticulture and winemaking, preserving the land for future generations. John summaries his role as "the responsibility for the future of this land and the desire to leave Jackson Estate in a better condition than I inherited it."
