Spencer Block

Spencer Block Wines is a family-run NZ venture founded in 2004 by Eric and Michael Spencer, born from a shared mission: life’s too short to drink bad wine. Sourcing and crafting premium Mendoza wines—including a standout Malbec—this brand delivers exceptional value and flavour to discerning wine lovers.

Founded by Kiwi wine professionals Eric (ex‑Desert Heart owner) and Michael Spencer, Spencer Block Wines embodies a passion for quality and value. With vineyards in Mendoza, Argentina and an unwavering motto—"Life’s too short to drink bad wine"—the brand produces fruit-forward reds like their signature Malbec, noted for intense blackberry, plum, and cocoa aromas, medium body, silky tannins, and a refined finish. Each bottle seeks to bring high‑end character at friendly prices, making sophisticated wines accessible to more drinkers.
