| In front of our Spring Creek Sauvignon Blanc vineyard sits a small historic church called Saint Luke’s, which is both the inspiration for our company name and a symbol of the principles on which the family business was founded. One of the church’s faithful members and, arguably, the backbone of the rural village of Spring Creek, New Zealand, was the grandmother of company cofounder Graeme Gilles. This remarkable woman raised a tight-knit family and worked her entire life in the hard, rustic environment that was Marlborough in the early 1900s. Her value system—faith, family, hard work, dedication, and honesty—made an indelible impression on her family and it inspired future generations. Today, her grandson and the entire Saint Lukes operation proudly carry on her extraordinary legacy, uncompromising values, and indomitable spirit in the pursuit of excellence in grape growing and winemaking. |
