Normanby reimagines what a wine and spirits space can be - blending an exclusive and extensive retail selection, a casual wine bar and café, a private tasting room, and a striking collection of furniture, art, and interior pieces sourced and curated by The Estate at Webb’s - all available to purchase

At first glance, Normanby - located at 31a Normanby Road, Mount Eden - feels effortlessly different. Eschewing the clichés of traditional wine retail, it offers a fresh vision and a new benchmark: an inviting space for exploration and easy-going enjoyment, thoughtfully designed around how people actually discover, shop for, and enjoy fine wine, spirits, sake and craft beer.

Led by renowned wine expert Liz Wheadon - one of New Zealand’s most respected voices in wine retail, judging, and industry advocacy, and now Webb’s Director of Wine - Normanby was born from a simple idea: that buying wine should feel less like a transaction and more like an experience. It’s a place built on curation, conversation, and the joy of sharing knowledge - where great bottles come with context, and discovery is part of the pleasure.

Normanby Fine Wine & Spirits is the culmination of Liz Wheadon’s three decades in the wine world — shaped by global industry relationships, deep product knowledge, and a sharp eye for what the future of wine and spirits retail could be.

Liz explains: “We wanted to create something we couldn’t quite find elsewhere — an environment where choosing wine, spirits and sake, whether in person or online, is enjoyable, approachable, and genuinely interesting, no matter your taste or budget. Normanby is fine wine and spirits — done differently — and we’re incredibly excited to open our doors to a new era of retail.
