Team Te Whare Ra

Jo – Winery Administration, Sales & Logistics

If you phone or email the Te Whare Ra office it’s very probable that you will be speaking with Jo. Very efficient, super organised and a logistics superstar, Jo handles all our admin, office and logistics functions and has joined the TWR family just recently. Jo loves gardening and preserving and has a collection of animals larger than ours! She also keeps the mail order and international shipments moving, and our books and us, in order, which is essential to the smooth running of Te Whare Ra.

Family – The Flowerday’s & The Burgan’s.

Our other great supporters are our families – Jason’s parents Ross and Marie Flowerday and Anna’s parents Chris & Sally Burgan. The Flowerday’s have been involved in many aspects of the Marlborough industry since the early 80s, and the Burgan’s are winegrowers from McLaren Vale in SA. Our families have always backed us to the hilt, and believed in our vision for where we wanted to take Te Whare Ra and we couldn’t have done all this without their help.

We’re a small team but a great team. We’re so thankful to have people who have a huge passion for quality wine and understand why we do things a bit differently here at Te Whare Ra. Our team motto (which is written on our staff noticeboard) is a quote by chef Marco Pierre White which very succinctly sums up our approach to what we do and how we do it – “perfection is a lot of small things done well”.
