About WineCraft
Cultivating Excellence
Brendon Nottage started out in the industry in 1987 as a wine waiter in Wellington. A fortunate opportunity to work for Peter Rumble of Rumbles Wine Merchants arose from 1989 to 1992. At 23 years of age, Brendon was tasting the best there was from New Zealand, Australia, Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Portugal, Italy and more. The education received from Peter proved second to none, and the opportunities to meet the most remarkable winemakers and producers from all over, including Christian Pol Roger of Champagne Pol Roger and the Marchesi de Frescobaldi of Chianti Frescobaldi, invaluable.
Leaving New Zealand in October 1993, Brendon headed to London with wife Michelle with the singular goal of working in the wine trade and travelling Europe. Thanks to contacts established while working at Rumbles, Brendon and Michelle visited the great wine regions of France (Champagne more than once!) as well Italy, Portugal and Spain, growing their knowledge of the wines and regions of these countries.
The new millennium brought another move, this time a step closer to home with Brendon and Michelle landing in Australia, again to work and expand on their learning and experience. Following a stint managing a specialty wine store in Melbourne, Brendon was appointed liquor operations manager in Jindabyne, Snowy Mountains. His role included redeveloping and refurbishing the entire liquor operations under his umbrella. The main store was refurbished to a high standard resulting in the National Liquor Review publication rating it as one of the top 5 stores in Australia at the time.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Seriously, what a gem we have here in Paraparaumu. The owner (Brendon) is lovely and the prices are very fair. I’ve come across 2 bottles of Whisky I couldn’t find elsewhere and also my partner is hooked on trying the different wines. Thanks so much Brendon for the chats also.
