At Onyx we really strive to embed sustainable practices into the Onyx culture.
We know now more than ever we have to be part of the environmental solution, not add to the problem, so when Alice from 3sixty2 reached out to us, we just knew her wines would be a perfect fit here at Onyx.
The story of 3sixty2, starts with a number. More than a full turn, less than the days in a year. But, 3sixty2 is more than just a number. Much more.
3sixty2 is a number that marks a new start for New Zealand wine. It’s a number that represents tenacity, courage and staying true to yourself. It’s about changing the rules. And it’s about honouring your nature no matter what. Because in today's world, standing up for what's right has never been more important.
3sixty2 has become New Zealand's first wine producer to introduce carbon offsets with CarbonClick - an agile kiwi company that’s changing the way businesses can deliver better climate outcomes.
For Alice, sustainability is pushing the boundaries to do better, faster. She knows we have no time to spare; she thinks like us. Climate change is inevitable and changing the way she makes her wines and focusing on finding a better way to do things, is a promise she's made to our world. Our ocean is filling up with unwanted plastics, like us, she knows that has simply got to stop so 3sixty2 has adopted a zero-waste policy, with a commitment to be carbon neutral by 2025.
At just 25, after working as a viticulturist for many years already, she realised she was ready to take ownership, to navigate her own path. For her it was time to shake up the industry, one bottle at a time. She started in the vineyards nurturing the vines and has nurtured her business in the same way. What drives her is passion to bring out the very best of what nature has to offer.
3sixty2 produces small volumes of craft Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir from Marlborough. Alice takes great pride in knowing that each and every one of her bottles stands true to her ethos at 3sixty2 - to deliver a sustainable product that honours our nature.
