Why Villa Maria Is the New Zealand Wine Everyone Should Try

Our City Tonight Wine & Dine welcomes back **David Roper**, New Zealand winemaker and Chief Winemaker at **Indevin Group**, the parent company of **Villa Maria**, for his first appearance on the show since the autumn of 2020. In this extended conversation, David shares his perspective on New Zealand winemaking and discusses two wine brands from the Indevin portfolio: *Villa Maria* and **Leftfield Wines**. Villa Maria is a well-known name in New Zealand wine, while Leftfield offers another expression of the country's winemaking character and creativity. The interview takes place at **Beach House in West Vancouver**, providing a beautiful coastal setting for a conversation about wine, the people who make it, and the distinctive character of New Zealand's wine industry. Join Our City Tonight as we catch up with David Roper and explore the wines and winemaking philosophy behind Villa Maria and Leftfield. Our City Tonight Wine & Dine brings viewers conversations with winemakers, chefs, restaurateurs, and hospitality professionals, along with visits to restaurants, wineries, pubs, and culinary destinations in Vancouver, British Columbia, and beyond.
