Spinyback

Happy World Lizard Day! 🦎🌿
Well... almost.

Despite their appearance, Tuatara aren't actually lizards. They belong to their own ancient order of reptiles called Rhynchocephalia — a lineage that split from lizards and snakes more than 240 million years ago.
Today, the Tuatara is the only surviving member of that entire group, making it one of the world's most remarkable living fossils.

At Spinyback, we're proud to support conservation projects helping protect this incredible species and the habitats it calls home.

Protecting Nature. One glass at a time.

As fresh as the places that inspire it. 🌿

Cold streams. Native bush. Crisp New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

Spinyback is made for adventures outdoors and the moments that remind us to slow down and appreciate the wild. Every bottle also helps support the protection of New Zealand's remarkable Tuatara, because these places deserve looking after. 🦎

Life moves a little slower out here. A crisp Pinot Gris, fresh air and good company. Sometimes that's all you need.

Because the best moments are the simplest ones.

With every bottle you enjoy, you're helping support Tuatara conservation projects across Aotearoa, protecting one of New Zealand's most remarkable native species and the environments it calls home.

Nature doesn't rush, and neither should you.

The best moments rarely happen in a hurry. They're found beside rivers, under big skies, around campfires and shared with good company.

Inspired by New Zealand's wild places and the Tuatara that calls them home, Spinyback is a reminder to slow down and enjoy the journey.

Not all conservation happens in the spotlight.
Sometimes it starts with something as simple as a safe burrow, healthy habitat, and an ecosystem given the chance to thrive. 🌿🦎

Wishing you a happy Matariki from all of us at Spinyback. ✨

As the Matariki stars rise, may this season bring time to reflect on the past, celebrate the present, and look forward to the future.

From our team to you, have a safe and meaningful Matariki with your whānau and friends. 🌿
