Where Is New Zealand Located On A World Map Central Otago In certain parts of this district, where a good aspect and well-sheltered spots are available, the cultivation of the vine may be undertaken, butjudgment must be exercised in the selection of varieties to be planted, and cultivation and pruning methods must be adopted that meet the requirements of the colder vine-growing regions. After a Lincoln College seminar in 1976, Tom McDonald, the managing director of McWilliam’s Wines in Hawke’s Bay, asked Ann Pinckney her plans when she graduated with her Master’s degree in horticultural science. She replied: ‘Grow grapes

New Zealand On World Map I have carried out extensive surveys on our own and surrounding properties using a backhoe. The variability is quite incredible, and almost without exception, the southern side of the Wairau Plain will require deep ripping to some extent. I believe the majority of the soils in both regions will support grapes, and as mentioned earlier, feel that climate is a greater limiting factor. Winemaker Kevin Judd is just as unequivocal on the reason for the distinctiveness of Marlborough’s Sauvignon Blanc when he insists that ‘it’s primarily climatic’. The two points of view are not necessarily

World Map Of New Zealand The most favoured localities, very suitable for cool climate wine production, are the semi arid brown-grey earth soils at Bannockburn, those from Cromwell to Pisa and about Alexandra to Clyde. All have mean January temperatures of 17°C or higher and 1000 to 1250 GDD in degrees Celsius October to April. The thermal conditions at any of the above locations can be enhanced by shelter, slope, and aspect. Shelter adds some 100 GDD. On the other hand, each additional metre in height loses about one GDD but increasing altitude can make sites less frost

Gisborne was also one site where the brewing companies and wine and spirits wholesale and retail outlets took a renewed commercial interest in wine producers. They were seeking to colonise the filiere by taking a financial interest in selected producers who supplied them with wine. For almost 50 years the Wohnsiedler family’s wine business in Gisborne had been marketing its port and sherry to hotels via the licensed trade. In 1960 it was in need of capital to continue in production. The Wellington regional distribution company W. and R. Smallbone Ltd took a one-third interest in Wohnsiedler’s Waiherere Wines, and

Strike Photography Grape growers, vine varieties, and wine enterprises Does the New Zealand organisation of the filiere (which is the same as in many ‘New World’ wine countries) make a difference to the varieties planted, especially in a country where they are not specified in law? The answer from Gisborne grape growers is a definite ‘yes’. Because there are very few local wineries in Gisborne, the demands of the wine companies have always influenced the varieties of grapes chosen by growers. Reid Fletcher, one of the large Gisborne growers and esteemed contributor to New Zealand grape growing, planted his first

Varietal revolution Vinifera varieties dominated the fledgling wine industry in nineteenth-century New Zealand. Much of the accumulated knowledge about growing these classical varieties disappeared during the first two decades of the twentieth century when the wine industry declined. The industry’s period of modest growth from the 1920s was propelled by lesser varieties – first by the American Vitis labrusca varieties and then by the hybrid varieties. Romeo Bragato had imported American vines into New Zealand when he was charged with combating the phylloxera that he had discovered. He grafted vinifera varieties that would produce fine wine on to disease-resistant rootstock.

Hawke’s Bay The Hawke’s Bay wine industry was so different it could have been in another country, perhaps Australia. Four enterprises – McWilliam’s Wines Ltd, McDonald’s Wines, Glenvale Wines and Vidal – dominated winegrowing in Hawke’s Bay. Each made over 50,000 gallons (227,500 litres) of wine annually. In Henderson, Corbans (85,000 gallons) was the only winery with a similar level of production. In 1960 the four Hawke’s Bay wineries were responsible for 86 per cent of the region’s production. Using the categories of New Zealand Winegrowers in the twenty-first century, all of these wineries would be in Category 2 –

Geography of vines and wines from mid-century The results of the Easter Show reveal much of the international and internal geography of the vine and wine around 1960 as well as clues to their future. Wines were named after those of other countries – Hock, Chablis, Claret, Burgundy, Sherry, Port, Vermouth, Sauterne. At least in the case of the ‘Sherry’ type, and especially dry sherry, the grapes were sometimes Palomino, the variety from which the genuine sherry from Jerez de la Frontera is made. By contrast, the ‘Hock’ type did not see many kilograms of New Zealand wines circa I960:
