More about New Zealand Wine
New Zealand Wine Facts The realisation of New Zealand's broad diversity of vineyard sites, and ideal viticultural growing conditions, for the creation of outstanding wines from this distinctive cool climate, came relatively late. Early Croatian settlers chose to plant fruit or vegetables for the local market in nearby Auckland, where most had chosen to settle. Driven by their desire to create and enjoy a drink more acceptable to their traditional European palates than the chosen beverage of their newly adopted country, these hard-working Croatian immigrants planted grapes. With the passage of time, however, the early 1970's ushered in a whole new awareness of grape growing for quality wine production in New Zealand. The search was on for more suitable vineyard sites away from Auckland. This coincided with the move away from the consumption of fortified wine, and the emerging love affair of consumers in the 1980's with the classic varieties of the world. New Zealand’s unique geographical characteristics provide it with a surprisingly varied terroir for such a small country. It has 8 main wine making regions: Auckland Gisbourne Hawkes Bay Wairarapa Marlborough Nelson Cantebury Central Otago Top Facts about New Zealand Wine 41% of New Zealand’s wine exports are to the UK, with a 50% growth rate seen in 2004-2005 The UK is the largest export market for New Zealand Wine Marlborough is New Zealand’s largest wine growing region.

The northern hemisphere equivalent would run from Bordeaux (between the latitudes of 44 and 46 degrees) down to southern Spain. Gisborne is the first wine region in the world to see the new day's sun. So now we have the facts, let's get on with the tasting!
