Leaving behind careers in medicine & molecular biology, Doctors John & Brigid Forrest established Forrest Estate in Marlborough's stony Wairau River Valley in 1989. This cheery pair won a coup at their first vintage, scooping a trophy at NZ's national wine awards. Unstopable, they have forged on to become one of the most inovative & reliably good of NZ's top wineries.
