I found that this limited the number of farmers I could see to an average of five a day, which was what I wanted. I set out with my mind made up to get two sales out of the five, and I nearly always got them. I gradually worked up the centre of North Island, until I approached Rotorua, the famous thermal district. I finished one day’s work some miles south of Rotorua and had to pitch camp in the dark. The countryside was covered in manuka scrub, also called ‘ti-tree’. This grows nearly as dense as bamboo, and frequently

Show Me A Map Of New Zealand He added the following: As vines do not normally come into growth before October only the last half of the frost fighting season would be a worry. In many seasons there would be no damaging frosts within this period, and in fact there were none in the season just past. Apples are at their most frost tender over the same period and it is not often necessary to light frost pots in an apple block. Central Otago residents who knew the history of the region could also point to successful cultivation of the

New Zealand Road Map Robin quickly became an advisor and mentor to other Central Otago grape growers, many of whom had little formal training in viticulture. By 2000 he was managing fourteen vineyards of various sizes and advising on five others as well as consulting when the opportunities arose. In his spare time he started teaching a viticulture course at the polytechnic in Cromwell from 1992 and continued doing this into the twenty-first century. Members of the Central Otago winegrowing community, such as Steve Green of Carrick, who took the polytechnic course attest to its influence on both their own

Road Map Of New Zealand By 2010, the total area of vineyards on Waiheke Island and in the Matakana locality northeast of Warkworth was greater than the combined vineyard area of the two main Auckland viticultural nodes in the region during much of the twentieth century, Kumeu-Huapai and Henderson-Oratia. This group of more recent and emerging localities now has a similar area in vines to the Auckland vineyard in 1980 when the Ministry of Agriculture recorded 603 hectares. Auckland’s sequence of growth, then decline, followed by a noticeable period of growth in the last decade, has involved two interrelated changes.

Where Is New Zealand On The Map With the wine industry now so important to the local economy, it might be assumed that differences between the citizens of the Marlborough district and those growing grapes would have dissipated. Yet, since the head-on court battles in the 1970s to establish the rights of landowners to grow grapes, other issues to do with the vine have taken their place. Two stand out – the voracious demands of the wine industry for water, and the effect of the vine monoculture on the landscape and ecology of the Marlborough region. Aquifers, and water rights

New Zealand Map Hunter’s Wines, Marlborough. Hunter’s Wines that attract international winegrowers and consumers? Even the viticulturists and winemakers, those closest to the daily and seasonal development of the vine and wine, as well as the scientists, find that question difficult to answer. This chapter explores the application of human effort in Marlborough’s natural environments to tease out the complex interactions between the two. The Wairau andAwatere valleys On a clear day when your plane lands at Wellington airport from Christchurch or Auckland it is easy to imagine that the North and South Islands were joined as recently as two

Enterprises in the Gisborne story Matawhero Wines A local bookseller, Bill Irwin, with his son Denis, bought land and imported clones of Chardonnay and other varieties to begin growing grapes before establishing Matawhero Wines with its first vintage in 1975. The free-spirited Denis Irwin became an influential figure in New Zealand winemaking – first by quickly revealing his own talent to make stylish Chardonnays and Gewurztraminers that towered over the one-dimensional Muller Thurgau wines of the time, and second by becoming something of a guru to aspirant winemakers of similar disposition. Some of the most influential winemakers of the late

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

New Zealand vines in their climates and soils Viewed from the vine’s perspective it is limiting, although often necessary, to separate climate from soils when trying to understand why vines are cultivated by people in particular localities and regions. Grapevines have their roots in the soil and their leaves in the atmosphere. The plant reacts to stimuli from its total environment as it proceeds each year towards its biological imperative of producing fruit and seeds that will ripen, be eaten by birds and other animals, and reproduce the parent plant. In the spirit of this integrated or eco-physiological approach, I

Historical geography of the vine The historical geography of the vine and wine in New Zealand is usefully viewed in a series of overlapping phases: the period of rural settlement The country’s leading winemakers gather at the 1970 Viticultural Association field day. The association’s president, George Mazuran – a Croatian immigrant who had been growing grapes and lobbying government in New Zealand for more than 30 years – addresses the group.
