Forrest Wines come on board as partners of the Wellington Rugby Football Union

Wellington Rugby Football Union are thrilled to announce a new partnership with Forrest Wines for 2024.

Forrest Wines was founded in the world-class wine-growing region of Marlborough in the 1980’s. Fast forward 30 years, and Forrest wines have been enjoying success after success in the wine-making industry. The Doctors’ range is an integral part of the Forrest Wines family, embodying the Forrest commitment to exceptional quality and innovative winemaking in every bottle.

Forrest Wines General Manager Beth Forrest says, “We're excited to begin our new partnership with the Wellington Lions and Pride. As avid fans of the game and with a shared passion for community, we look forward to supporting their journey both on and off the field.”

As part of their partnership, Forrest Wines are the proud sponsors of the number 6 jersey for women’s side the Wellington Pride.

WRFU CEO Tony Giles added, “We’re delighted to have Forrest Wines come on board this year. Their family values align really closely with our own, and we’re grateful to have Forrest Wines support in providing their lower-alcohol Doctors range in support of both of our teams as we head into the 2024 season.”

From dinners with friends and celebrations with family, to long-planned get-togethers and spontaneous catch ups, wine is part of some of life’s truly magic moments. Of course, the day after isn’t always so magic. So, Doctors John and Brigid Forrest set their scientific brains and their creative (ever-restless) minds to finding a solution – a way to enjoy all the fun, without having to suffer the regrets. The result is great tasting, naturally-produced, lower-alcohol wines that everyone wants to drink.
