We’ve designed an intuitive search function that enables consumers to find wines using key aromas, flavours and even food matches. This gives them the confidence they need to search for their perfect wine based on their flavour profile, structural preference, or even what they’re cooking for dinner. Wine-oji® Services offers you the potential to expose your wine multiple times to a new, more informed consumer through the search engine.

We are three passionate wine professionals and sommeliers with many years’ experience in wine and hospitality, both in New Zealand and overseas. Through our extensive restaurant experience and connecting daily with people buying and drinking wine, we’ve come to realise that they just want to know what’s in the bottle, what the wine really tastes like and whether they will enjoy it.

It all begins with consumer education.

Our creation of Wine-oji® has revolutionised the way wine is viewed, marketed and enjoyed. We understand that wine can be daunting for some but should be enjoyed by all!

After multiple years building our relationships and reputation in the industry, the Wine-oji® Team is the perfect choice to discover your wine in an engaging and enjoyable way.

We’re here to help you through the world of Wine-oji®.

The Birthplace of Wine-oji®

It all started at Noble Rot Wine Bar in Wellington, New Zealand!

We spend our days and nights serving, tasting, talking and teaching wine at the coalface of the restaurant business.

Time and again we’re asked: ‘Is it dry?’, ‘Is it oaky?’, ‘What’s the difference…?’, ‘Does it taste nice?’

We realised that many people must have these questions when they are buying wine for themselves at home, for a party, or for that special someone.

We wanted to extend our sommelier service outside the restaurant industry through a system of appealing imagery, to communicate to them at home what is in their bottle.

We started designing a library of fruit and floral images and, before we knew it, Wine-oji® was born!
