Auburn Wines - Central Otago Riesling Wine of New Zealand

The Auburn Team

Max Marriott

On the ground at Auburn headquarters, Max oversees all aspects of day-to-day operations, from viticulture to winemaking to marketing. Favourite pastimes include shoot thinning, tasting grapes and romantic walks through the vineyard.

David Paterson

A kiwi expat living abroad, Dave is based in the Okanagan Valley of Canada where he works as the winemaker for a high profile Riesling specialist. His technical advice and consultancy ensures the Auburn wines are made pure and reflective of origin.

Andrew Burge

The sage wizard of the operation, Andrew is based in Brisbane where his all-seeing eye is never far from the vineyards. A Riesling fanatic, he provides very necessary business nous and a probing mind that keeps Max and Dave honest.
