Conference Scholarship
Organic Winegrowing New Zealand is partnering with the New Zealand Horticentre Charitable Trust to offer up to 10 scholarships for the Organic & Biodynamic Winegrowing Conference in Marlborough on 16-18 June.
Wine Marlborough General Manager Marcus Pickens says Marlborough is home to many winemakers and winegrowers who have been working hard at their craft for decades.
"Alongside them, we have experts in many areas, including the likes of our scientists and horticulturists who have helped along the way, and continue to do so.”
To read more about Rob, who spent more than three decades recording, interpreting and disseminating meteorological data for winegrowers, see the December 2022 Winegrower Magazine.

The top award in the 2024 Marlborough Wine Show, sponsored by Quay Connect, went to the Yealands Estate Single Block L5 Sauvignon Blanc 2024. Chief Judge Stu Marfell says Sauvignon Blanc was a standout in the show, both for the new 2024 vintage wines, but also the legacy category. “The quality of the fruit this year was exceptional; as good as it gets for Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.” International Guest Judge Elaine Chukan Brown, from the United States, noted an “elevation of nuance to place, sophistication and quality” in the wines tasted. “What I found especially satisfying was how clear the expression of Marlborough’s various subregions has become.”
