Our first grape vintage of this century looks like being the most prolific according to the Wine Institute.
Following its Annual Vintage survey, the Institute estimates winemakers harvested 80,100 tonnes of grapes this year, marginally exceeding the previous record last year of 79,700.
This was in fact, smaller than expected, although the quality is reported to be high and will add to NZ’s reputation as premium wine producer, according to Wine Institute CEO, Philip Gregan.
