In the fifteen years since New Zealand winegrowing had begun to stir, some inklings of its future are apparent. Gisborne (Poverty Bay) stands out as having the highest proportion of grapes being produced by growers rather than wineries. In 1975 the 98 grape growers of Poverty Bay produced 84 per cent of the grapes made into wine. The next highest proportion was in Hawke’s Bay where 22 per cent of the grapes made into wine came from grape growers. By 1980 the number of grape growers in Gisborne had nearly doubled to 190 and Hawke’s Bay numbers had also increased

Hoar frost on the vines at Akarua’s Cairnmuir Road vineyard in Central Otago. Akarua Winery, Central Otago rock-crushing machines alter the soil profile and even the subsoil to make areas freer draining and easier to work. Environmental learning in the dispersion of the vine It is tempting to interpret the dispersion of the vine in New Zealand in the second half of the twentieth century solely through the soils and climates of the evolving regions. At a macro scale, several aspects of the New Zealand climate, soils and relief are pertinent. Both islands are characterised by strong west to east

They are extremely young, most being deposited since 1930 when accelerated erosion in the headwaters resulted in regular flooding at an average of more than one flood a year for the following 20 years before flood control was in place. The deposited materials aggraded the Gisborne Plain with layers of sediment. These regular floods restricted vegetation growth so that organic matter and nitrogen in the

Throughout the 1960s, the Corban family continued to expand their footprint in West Auckland. In 1969, they bought 121 acres in Taupaki.

Hawke’s Bay, with its much lower precipitation (under 800 mm compared with over 1400 mm in West Auckland), lower humidity and higher sunshine hours, is a more suitable natural environment for growing grapes to make table wine. In addition, its soils are more varied and versatile. They include loams, clays and river-deposited gravels. These natural advantages of Hawke’s Bay became clear from the 1960s when table wines became more important. But the heavier soils and higher precipitation in West Auckland have not precluded excellent wines being produced there, provided the standard of vineyard management and vinification is high. Enterprises such
