BETWEEN YOU AND A GREATNEW ZEALAND WINE
NEW ZEALAND WINE FAIR 2014 1
NEW ZEALAND WINE FAIRSAN FRANCISCO 15 MAY 2014
INTRODUCTION
New Zealand has had a remarkable impact
on the world’s wine market over the past
three decades. And that has certainly
been evident in the US since the late
1990s. A steady, and enviable, growth in
availability has been led by high-quality,
and distinctive and diverse styles. The
Sauvignon Blancs are like no others and
exhibit differing styles from region to
region and producer to producer. And the
Pinot Noirs have shown that they can take
their place amongst the world’s finest.
Curious and dedicated members of the
wine media and trade are discovering
that of equal interest and quality are the
Chardonnays, Rieslings, and Pinot Gris, as
well as Syrahs and red blends. And they are
now introducing those wines to consumers
across the country.
In addition to its quest for quality and
diversity, New Zealand is fully committed
in its commitment to sustainability. The
sustainability movement began in New
Zealand in the mid-1990s and today
Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand
(SWNZ) may very well be the standard
admired around the world. In addition to
a rigid certification program required for
SWNZ, the program also encompasses
wines which have been certified as organic
or biodynamic. Every single wine on offer
today has been certified as sustainable,
as have more than 95% of all the wine
produced in New Zealand.
New Zealand Winegrowers is pleased to
welcome you to our 2014 Wine Fair. Please
take the time to taste the diversity of
wines being offered. And do talk with the
representatives to learn about the wines,
and the people and places that produce
them. New Zealand is a place like no other
and it shows in every glass of its wines!

A LAND LIKE NO OTHER
TUCKED AWAY IN A REMOTE CORNER OF THE
GLOBE IS A PLACE OF GLORIOUS UNSPOILED
LANDSCAPES, EXOTIC FLORA AND FAUNA, AND A
CULTURE RENOWNED FOR ITS SPIRIT OF YOUTHFUL
INNOVATION. NEW ZEALAND IS A WORLD OF PURE
DISCOVERY, AND NOTHING DISTILLS ITS ESSENCE
MORE PERFECTLY THAN A GLASS OF NEW ZEALAND
WINE.
DISCOVER OUR WORLD.
New Zealand is one of the world’s youngest nations. Maori created its traditional cultural expression, and just as Maori artists today are reinterpreting ancient craftworks — such as kahu (cloaks, typically of feather, pictured) in new forms and materials — so our grape growers and winemakers are innovating in the vineyard and winery.
100% COMMITTED TO EXCELLENCE
New Zealand’s wine producing history extends back to the founding of the nation in the 1800s. It was the introduction to Marlborough’s astonishing Sauvignon Blanc in the 1980s that saw New Zealand wine explode onto the international scene, courtesy of world beating performances in international competitions and rapturous critical reviews.
While Marlborough retains its status as one of the world’s foremost wine producing regions, the quality of wines from elsewhere in the country has also garnered international acclaim.
By world standards New Zealand’s production capacity is tiny, accounting for less than
1% of total volume. Though the average price tag for a New Zealand wine is a reflection of its desirability, few would question its ability to deliver excellent value for money.In fact, it’s the unswerving commitment to quality over quantity that has won New Zealand its reputation as a premium producer.
This commitment is evident from the vineyard to the winery, along with sustainability leadership, New Zealand continues to pioneer advances such as canopy management, stainless steel fermentation techniques and screwcaps.

“For a small country with a relatively young wine industry (at least on the international level), New Zealand really has made a name for themselves over recent years. The wines retain an air of mystery that is somewhat unique in this ever-shrinking modern world of ours.”

WHAT DOES “SUSTAINABLE” MEAN FOR NEW ZEALAND WINE?
For us, sustainability means delivering excellent wine to consumers in a way that enables the natural environment, and the businesses and communities involved, to thrive.Under our Sustainability Policy, wine must be made from 100% certified grapes in fully certified winemaking facilities, and certification must be through an independently audited programme. Central to our sustainability policies is a commitment to keep improving, as new research is undertaken and new technologies are developed. We have an ongoing leadership role in industry research and development projects and, as a result, we’re helping to raise the global bar for sustainability.Seven “pillars” represent our key areas of focus, and we provide guidance and support around each to our members.
SUSTAINABLE WINEGROWING NEW ZEALAND is integral to the ongoing success of New Zealand wine. Members are committed to protecting the unique places that make our famous wines by reducing the use of chemicals, energy, water and packaging, and reusing and recycling materials and waste.
PILLARS OF SUSTAINABILITY
BIODIVERSITY
SOIL, WATER, AIR
BYPRODUCTS
PEOPLE
BUSINESS
Without the wealth we’re able to harvest from animals, plants and microorganisms, humans couldn’t survive. New Zealand wine producers cultivate and nurture diversity in the vineyard.
ENERGY
CHEMICALS
Even though New Zealand draws most of its electricity from renewable sources, the energy demands of wine production sees the industry employing reduction strategies in all activities.
The world expects a certain quality from New Zealand wine; to maintain standards we need to mitigate against disease and pests. Chemical use on the vineyard, however, is the last resort.
Reduce, reuse and recycle are the watchwords in New Zealand vineyards and wineries. Many byproducts are routinely diverted from the waste stream and turned to beneficial use.
A sustainable wine industry is for the benefit of people, and its success depends on delivery by people. New Zealand wine producers take their community responsibilities seriously.
Sustainable practices enable wine producers to add value in a number of meaningful ways, while also making long-term cost savings and are therefore critical to the legacy of our wine industry.
Blessed with an array of distinctive soils, abundant fresh water and famously clear air, our wine producers go to great lengths to take care of these treasures. Energy
AUCKLAND
One large wine operation finds energy efficiencies offer significant savings, so the winery employs heat recovery systems to store waste heat from refrigeration for use in winemaking. Night air cooling, and daytime illumination by natural light are two other successful initiatives.
Soil, Water, Air: Soil
CENTRAL OTAGO
For a winery with vineyards on flash flood-prone slopes, soil health is vital. To sustain their fragile soils they’re increasing organic matter by allowing maximum sward growth before mowing; judiciously applying compost-enriched bio-char, and balancing soil nutrient levels to preserve the low fertility that gives essential character to their wines.
Biodiversity: Wetlands
MARLBOROUGH
Rich in indigenous biodiversity, wetlands have high conservation value. One winery began restoring 50 hectares of wetland in 2004 and has since planted over 3000 native plants — with the help of staff and local communities. Along with positive ecological outcomes, the project has yielded wide-ranging business benefits.
Chemicals
GISBORNE
Each year, local ladybird populations boom in response to the numbers of the damaging pest mealy bug. “It takes some fortitude not to jump in and spray,” says one viticulturist, “but we endeavor to use no insecticides.” Planting cover crops to encourage ladybirds and other predators has significantly reduced use of chemical controls.

PREMIUM, SUSTAINABLE, DIVERSE
As an isolated, cool-climate island nation, New Zealand enjoys an undeniable advantage when it comes to producing distinctive, ultra high quality wines.
No place is more than 130km, or 80 miles, inland and the proximity of our vineyards to the ocean has a pronounced effect on the character of our wines. Mild, sunny summers and marked differences between day and night time temperatures in many regions slow the ripening of the grapes and allow
them to develop pure, intense varietal flavours. This is the foundation of New Zealand wines’ elegance and power, and helps explain their famed balance, structure and food friendliness.
And with growing regions extending 1,600km (1,000 miles) — from latitude 36° in the subtropical north to latitude 46° in the mountainous south (the most southerly vineyards in the world) — regional diversity is dramatic, enabling a striking array of wine varieties and styles to flourish.

SAUVIGNON BLANC
20,429ha*In 1973, as Marlborough’s first Sauvignon Blanc vines were being planted, no one could have predicted that their yields would attain superstar status within a couple of decades. The explosive flavours of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc have dazzled wine critics throughout the world, setting the international benchmark for the style. Pungently aromatic, New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc assails the senses with green capsicum (bell-pepper) and gooseberry characters through lush passionfruit and tropical fruit overtones. Other notes include freshcut grass, tomato stalks, melons or limes.
PINOT NOIR
5,425ha*Native to Burgundy and notoriously fickle (it thrives only in the most optimal of environments), the Pinot Noir grape has found in New Zealand a home away from home. New Zealand Pinot Noir shows fine tannins and elegance with the added excitement of vibrant, intense fruit and secondary herbal, spice and game characters. The huge diversity in climates and soils in New Zealand enables a wide range of styles from the Pinot producing regions.
RED BLENDS
2,012ha*Syrah Distinguished by its bright, spicy flavours and elegant texture, akin to elegant Northern Rhône style, New Zealand Syrah is crammed full of plum and savoury black pepper flavours and sometimes even a hint of violets. Cabernet Sauvignon/ Merlot blends By augmenting the structure and finesse of Cabernet Sauvignon with the vibrant, ripe fruit of Merlot, winemakers in New Zealand’s warmer northerly regions are creating elegant, yet powerfully intense, red wine blends. These blends are notable for their purity of fruit expression and are known for being rich and well structured, showing characters of plum, blackcurrant and chocolate.
CHARDONNAY
3,253ha*The classic New Zealand Chardonnay is mouth-filling, with concentrated citrus & tropical fruit, balanced by crisp acidity & refined minerality. The warmer NZ regions typically yield full to medium bodied wines with round, rich flavours, whilst the cooler South Island regions tend to produce medium to light bodied styles with greater acidity, minerality & fresh citrus flavours. As a wine, Chardonnay strongly reflects New Zealand’s unique terroir and the huge diversity within its regions.
KEY VARIETIES (PLANTED HECTARES, 2013)*
AROMATICS
3,617ha*Riesling The South Island’s bright days, cool nights and long, dry autumns create the perfect climate for Riesling. Style ranges from bone dry to lushly sweet. Pinot Gris Grown throughout the country, New Zealand Pinot Gris is more akin to Alsace in style than the drier Pinot Grigio, with notes of apple, pear, honeysuckle, spice and bread. Gewürztraminer New Zealand Gewürztraminer is extremely fragrant, with rose petals, lychee, cinnamon and ginger characters commonly seen.

Astrolabe Wines When winemaker Simon Waghorn decided to create his own brand he chose the name
“Astrolabe” because of the historic ties with Marlborough and the connotations of
exploration and discovery. All Simon’s skills and experience are combined with capturing
the essence of Marlborough in wines of purity, focus and elegance. Of special interest to
Simon are the unique qualities of sub regionality as expressed in the Valleys wines, and
how the sub regions can combine as Marlborough classics in the Province wines.

Craggy Range Craggy Range began with the desire to create a legacy. In 1997 Terry Peabody was
introduced to Steve Smith MW. Terry sensed an exciting possibility in New Zealand,
the climate and spirit of the people aligned with his own philosophy and desire to cut
a new path. He wanted to create wines that would become internationally regarded as
New World classics. The two made an important decision from the beginning - select
and source the best land in the country, and plant vines perfectly suited to that soil and
climate.

Man O’ War VineyardsLocated at the eastern end of Waiheke Island, in the beautiful Hauraki Gulf, Man O’ War
boasts a beautiful spread of coastal hillsides with high cliffs and stunning beaches.
This rugged coastline was ‘discovered’ in 1769 by Captain James Cook. Today we take
responsibility for maintaining its beauty and integrity for future generations. We first
introduced grapes to Man O’ War in 1993, firm in the belief that world class wines could be
produced here. Since then we have carefully selected and developed 76 individual pockets
of hillsides, each chosen for the unique and exceptional qualities they bring to our wines.

extensive viticultural expertise plus Marlborough’s mix of climate and soils with the talent of
one of New Zealand’s leading winemaking teams, led by Matt Thomson and Hamish Clark.

crisp Sauvignon Blanc wines. Flanked by a ridge of mountains to the west, Marlborough
receives minimal rainfall and is one of the sunniest areas in New Zealand. Here, warm
sunlight and cooling breezes prevail, coaxing bright flavors and crisp acidity from the
vines. Starborough Sauvignon Blanc offers rich layers of flavor and bright, refreshing style.
Established in 1994, Whitehaven and their winemaker Sam Smail have earned a reputation

Cobblestone VineyardsBased in California, Cobblestone produces single vineyard wines entirely from the
fruit of our own family estates, which we have established in what we feel are the ideal
locations for the grape varieties we grow. When searching the world for the ultimate
Pinot Noir vineyard, we discovered a small and exceptional property along Te Muna Road,
an especially remarkable terrace in the celebrated Pinot Noir village of Martinborough.
Appropriately, ‘Te Muna’ is Māori for ‘special’ or ‘secret place,’ and this truly special
vineyard is the birthplace of what is now our champion award-winning Pinot Noir.
