New Zealand Map World In the early 1990s, Sir Clifford Skeggs considered buying 10 hectares in the Bannockburn area and planting a vineyard. When he explored the economics of winegrowing his commercial experience soon revealed that ‘you can’t make money off 10 hectares’. By 2000 he had accumulated sufficient land to have most of 52 hectares of predominantly Pinot Noir grapes planted on the higher slopes of Bannockburn. His unpretentious brick winery ‘Akarua was nestled alongside the road to Cornish Point and the restaurant attached to the winery was operating. He had even established a small brewery in the same

World Map New Zealand Cloudy Bay, Dog Point and Greywacke Cloudy Bay, together with Dog Point and Greywacke, have been extremely influential in establishing New Zealand’s local and international reputation for producing fine wines from several varieties, but especially Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. From the mid-1980s, members of the Healy, Judd and Sutherland families held responsible positions at Cloudy Bay. After the French firm Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessey bought Cloudy Bay in 2003, members of these three families established their own enterprises. The Sutherland and Healy families built a winery to complement the Sutherland vineyards, and in 2008 Kevin

New Zealand World Map This was a period of consolidation and new investment. Well-funded grape-growing enterprises appeared, some with capital accumulated from other industries, some with an affiliation and written agreements to supply particular wineries. Local landowners who had been waiting more cautiously on the sidelines began planting. Even more migrants from the North Island purchased land and planted grapes. From 1990 the total area in vines was very much influenced by plantings of Sauvignon Blanc as its distinctive qualities and acceptance on the local and international markets became widely recognised. In 1989, Marlborough had 144 hectares of Sauvignon Blanc

Denis remains nostalgic for the early years of the winery when the oldest vines were almost a decade old, the varieties that were to make his reputation were producing promising fruit, and he was a talented, articulate and colourful winemaker and innovative marketer of Matawhero Wines: The raw enthusiasm of life when I didn’t have any pressureI had my father looking after the running of the finances, and we had staff in the vineyard and it was copingIt was only just a hobby.

At home, Bill Irwin had recognised that the varieties and clones available in New Zealand were unlikely to result in wines of the style and quality that they were seeking. By the early 1970s his letter writing and discussions internationally and with government scientists were beginning to bear fruit. He had selected a number of the varieties and clones that were to become the foundation of the Irwin vineyard, notably UCD7 Cabernet Sauvignon and UCD4 Gewurztraminer. By now, these and several others were out of quarantine, a number virus free, and established in the Irwin vineyard. As well as planting
