Soho Team
Rachael Carter
Founder & Managing Director
As a youngster, Rachael set out to work for her father in his wine supplies business. In 2002 Rachael started a screwcap company, her clever marketing “BEST SCREW ON THE PLANET” & hard work lead to a 98% market share & in 2008 she sold the screwcap business. In 2009 she created SOHO WINES to take on her father's growing vineyard portfolio. Her quest was to create a unique premium wine brand that embodied a passion for life, culture & all things fabulous. Her target market was herself (realising how much she actually drank this was a recipe for success!). Rach is known as the bionic woman (her spine & neck are full of Titanium), perhaps that explains her impressive ability to “no hands shot” a wine glass. Just as impressive is her Portfolio of wine, SOHO is regarded as one of NZ’s most awarded boutique wine companies.

Elinor Mudu
Office Manager
SOHO's Office Manager since 2011. Elinor has been in Customer Service for more years than she would like to admit. A Mother of 2 little ones & of 8 big ones (being us!). She is our SOHO backbone and to list what she does for SOHO & the team is actually endless. The nicest person you could meet BUT if you don’t pay your bill you will receive the wrath of this fiery Scot! When not at SOHO, she enjoys faffing with a glass of Chardonnay in hand while cooking up a storm for her Italian family & friends.
