A Map Of New Zealand He and his wife Glennice had bought a 10-acre property and house in 1982 opposite the quarry of Fraser Shingle. At the time the only grapes he knew of in the area were a parcel on Mere Road, although Chris Pask had begun accumulating land fronting Gimblett Road from 1980 and planting it in the early 1980s. Alan’s search for land was wide and deep. By the time he bought the land, he had dug to the water table in Mere Road and decided that with 8 to 12 metres of gravel beneath them the

Maps Of New Zealand Further vineyard and winery expansion The expansion of the wine industry in Marlborough to the present occurs in three further stages: the remainder of the 1980s, the 1990s, and the 2000s. In each stage a different geography of the vine emerges, strongly influenced by the expansion of existing enterprises and by new grape growers and wineries entering the industry. In the early 1980s, with neo-liberal reform looming, it would have been difficult, perhaps impossible, to predict Marlborough’s future sequence over these next three decades. Marlborough probably fared better than any other wine region during the difficult

One of the advantages of cool, dry climates is that it becomes easier to impose a moderate water deficit than in a hot climate The optimum ripeness window on an individual berry may last only for a very short period of timeBecause cooler climates extend the optimum ripeness window they are more likely to enable the production of great wines. Martin’s argument can be taken further. The flatter temperature curve in the wine regions of New Zealand encourages a more ‘gentle’ sequence of growth of the vine with sufficient hot spells to stimulate the ripening of the berries. In such

From 1970, a second period is characterised by the rise of Gisborne and Hawke’s Bay. By 1980, both Gisborne and Hawke’s Bay each had twice the area in vines of the Auckland region. Gisborne’s growth resulted from Montana Wines continuing its aggressive expansion by letting contracts for landowners to grow grapes. Corbans and Penfolds were quick to respond by arranging contracts with other landholders in Gisborne. A series of well-established, but smaller, Auckland-based wine companies – such as Babich, Nobilo and Matua Valley – followed the larger companies and sourced grapes from these new regions.

Auckland West Auckland vineyards and wineries in 1960 were small, mixed holdings (Figure 2.1). All but a few of them combined growing grapes with orcharding, and most ran some livestock on the rest of their property. A few still practised market gardening. Over 90 per cent were owned by people who at the time were called Yugoslavs, after their country of origin, but colloquially known as ‘Dallies’ because many came from the Dalmatian coast of Croatia. They were family enterprises sometimes involving two families and more than one generation. The average size of vineyards in Henderson-Oratia was 5 acres (about
