Grover Zampa is one of the pioneers of modern Indian wine, with vineyard holdings in both the Nandi Hills of Karnataka and the Nashik Valley of Maharashtra. Founded by Kanwal Grover, the winery helped establish serious viticulture in India and today combines selective hand harvesting, controlled yields and modern cellar techniques with a strong focus on regional character. The Nandi Hills vineyards sit around 920 metres above sea level, where limestone-rich soils and elevation contribute freshness and structure, while Nashik provides a complementary range of growing conditions. The portfolio spans everyday varietal wines, premium blends, sparkling wines and late-harvest expressions.
