WE HAVE SOME SAD NEWS 💔

After putting absolutely everything into trying to secure the future of our current home, unfortunately we weren’t able to make it happen.

The site has been sold, and that means Swift has to move.

We fought bloody hard to stay.

For the past two years, we’ve poured so much of ourselves into this place. We built Custom Crush here (home to 13 brands), opened the Swift cellar door, threw parties, hosted lunches, launched wines and welcomed so many of you through the doors.

We genuinely thought this would be our home for a long time.

So yeah, it hurts.

Right now, we’re not 100% sure where Swift goes next. We have ideas, we have plans and we’re working through what the next chapter looks like. As soon as we know, you’ll know.

But there is one thing we are VERY sure about.

These four walls don’t define Swift.

You can buy a building.

You can’t buy our energy.
You can’t buy our style.
You can’t buy our ideas.
You can’t buy our community.
You can’t buy the people who turn up, drink our wines and back what we do.

Swift is the wine. The people. The dogs. The long lunches. The slightly ridiculous ideas. The colour, the energy and the fun.

Swift isn’t a place. Swift is us.

And we’re not going anywhere.

We have FIVE WEEKENDS LEFT at our current cellar door.

So please come and see us. Bring your mates. Drink the wine. Build a ridiculous platter. Stock up and help us make these last five weekends some of our best.

Then we’ll work out where the hell we’re going next. 💗🍷

Thurs – Sun | 12–4pm

Online, as always, we’re open 24/7.

🍇 Cellar Door Closed for August 🍇

Our Swift cellar door will be taking a wee break for the month of August.
We’re using the quiet time to tackle some maintenance around the place and give our hardworking team a well-earned rest before things ramp up again.

We’ll be back in September, refreshed and ready to kick off the summer season with a bang. 🥂

Thanks for your patience — see you on the other side!

Harvest feels like a lifetime ago… so here’s a little throwback. 🍇

A few behind the scenes moments from the busiest, messiest and most exciting time of the year.

Long days. Purple hands. Sticky boots. Countless decisions. A whole lot of laughs.

Every bottle starts here, and we can’t wait to share the 2026 vintage with you. We have a feeling you’re going to love it.

06/07/2026

We’re taking a moment to celebrate Matariki, so we’ll be closed on Friday, then back pouring your favourite wines all weekend.

Join us Saturday or Sunday from 12–4pm. Pull up a chair, build your own platter, enjoy a glass (or two) and spend some quality time with the people who matter most.

We’d love to see you.

Mānawatia a Matariki ✨
