What started in Aotearoa is now reaching further.
This June, we're excited to share the announcment of a local donation partner for Canada, marking a new chapter for Kōparepare wines.
As Kōparepare grows in Canada, we welcome Ocean Wise into the Kōparepare community, and to continue building support for the oceans that connect us all.
This partnership brings our Kōparepare Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc to a new audience, while staying true to the purpose that has shaped Kōparepare from the beginning: to give back to the ocean.
Kōparepare meaning “gift” or “contribution” in te reo Māori, was created from Whitehaven’s long-standing connection to the sea, and that connection continues to guide everything we do. For every bottle sold, we donate to marine conservation.
Available in Canada exclusively through The Cactus Club Cafe, we’re proud to partner with Ocean Wise, an organisation dedicated to protecting and restoring our oceans, so the same commitment can continue in a new market.
This launch is about more than where Kōparepare is poured. It’s about carrying the same values across borders: great wine, made with care, and a genuine commitment to marine conservation. From Marlborough to Canada, every bottle remains part of a bigger story – connecting wine lovers to the ocean and to the difference their purchase can help make.
In New Zealand, our partnership with LegaSea continues and remains at the heart of the brand, helping support the protection and restoration of marine ecosystems for future generations at home.
