Ethos/credo/personnel Dynamic
One sunny day, whilst having a couple of beerzies, three Marlborough based winemakers decided to collaborate
and make wines together under a single brand – Vandal. This ‘side project’ gives each member scope to make
wines they would not normally have the opportunity to put to bottle. These wines could be considered a bit
‘weird’ in a conventional sense, however, at the core of the Vandal ethos is ensuring that they are smashasble,
so don’t freak out just yet…. Wines were made in very small quantities (approx. 600 x 6 pack cases of each).
Why Vandal / Gonzo / Bats
Vandal – The Vandals stuck it to the man, or more specifically the Roman Empire.
Gonzo – Things never got weird enough
Bats – They are cool. Be yourself, unless your batman…then be batman
