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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
By world standards New
Zealand’s production
capacity is tiny,

In fact, it’s the unswerving
commitment to quality
over quantity that has
won New Zealand its
reputation as a premium

“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
PILLARS OF SUSTAINABILITY
Biodiversity
Without the wealth we’re able to harvest from
animals, plants and microorganisms, humans
couldn’t survive. New Zealand wine producers
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.
cultivate and nurture diversity in the vineyard.
Soil,
Water,
Air
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.
Even though New Zealand draws most of its
ENERGY
CHEMICALS
BYPRODUCTS
electricity from renewable sources, the energy
demands of wine production sees the industry
employing reduction strategies in all activities.
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.
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.
PEOPLE
BUSINESS
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.
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.
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 compostenriched 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.
PREMIUM, SUSTAINABLE, DIVERSE
As an isolated, cool-climate island nation, New
Zealand enjoys an undeniable advantage when it
comes to producing distinctive, 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.

KEY VARIETIES
(Planted hectares, 2014)*
REd blends
2,012ha*
CHARDONNAY
3,346ha*
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.
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.
AROMATICS
3,611ha*
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.
Pinot noir
5,509ha*
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.
Sauvignon Blanc
20,029ha*
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.

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 skill 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.

leading winemaking teams, led by Matt Thomson and Hamish Clark. Awarded Winestate NZ Winery of the Year

Schubert Wines
www.schubert.co.nz
Searching for the perfect terroir and conditions for viticulture, especially for Pinot Noir, Kai Schubert and Marion
Deimling, both being graduates of the German Viticulture and Oenology University in Geisenheim, travelled the
world. Their voyage took them to wine regions in France and Germany, Oregon and California, South America and
Australia. In New Zealand their quest finally ended and they settled in Martinborough in the Wairarapa Valley
founding Schubert Wines; a unique place producing low yields in the vineyards with excellent quality grapes
resulting in internationally award winning wines with intense and complex character which are exported to
36 countries.

Pinot Gris
Mouth-filling, rich, refreshing. An intense pleasure, whether refreshingly light or richly complex.
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. The warmer North Island climate tends to create ripe, fat,
oily styles whilst the cooler South Island produces tighter wines with great structure. Much New Zealand Pinot Gris
undergoes a small amount of barrel ageing, with wild yeasts and lees stirring for complexity.
Enjoy the contrast in styles of Pinot Gris — refreshingly elegant or richly complex.

Pinot Noir
Intense, expressive, fruit-driven. Old world structure and elegance meets new world power and intensity.
Native to Burgundy and notoriously fickle (it is world class only in cool-climate regions), the Pinot Noir grape has
found in New Zealand a home away from home. Our winemakers tease a tantalising array of distinctive regional
and terroir-driven styles from the land. Common to all, however, are Old World structure and elegance overlaying
New World power and fruit-driven intensity.
Discover the distinctive terroir driven styles of Pinot Noir with old world structure and new world fruit driven intensity.

Cheese Notes
Albert’s Leap Bel Haven
Quality Cheese
Vaughan, ON
qualitycheese.com
Quality Cheese represents the fourth generation in a family tradition of
cheesemaking. A white, velvety rind surrounds the soft creamy interior
paste of this triple cream brie-style cheese. Adding extra cream into the
milk creates a luxurious mouth feel with flavour notes of cultured butter,
contrasting beautifully with the slightly chewy rind. The aroma has a
delicate hint of mushroom.
Tipsy
Social Club Artisan Foods
Toronto, ON
glenechofinefoods.com
Made in Woodstock by Gunn’s Hill Artisan Cheese, Tipsy has a deep
burgundy-coloured rind, contrasting beautifully with the ivory interior.
Aged 4 weeks, the cheese is then soaked in a Cabernet/Merlot blend
for a further 2-4 days and then aged another 4 weeks. The mild, wineinfused flavour finishes as well as it starts, lingering long afterwards. The
mouth feel of this semi-soft cheese is wonderfully smooth and creamy.
Miranda
Fromagerie Fritz Kaiser
Noyan, QC
kaisercheese.com
Fritz Kaiser moved to Canada from his native Switzerland and
established Fromagerie Fritz Kaiser in 1981. In the Canadian French
colony period, the town of Noyan was part of the region of Miranda,
hence the cheese’s name. This firm cheese has a rose and copper
coloured rind covering the dense, ivory paste. Rich nut and fruit
flavours develop during the carefully monitored curing of 5 months,
during which the cheese is washed and turned every few days.
Ask for these fine cheeses in:
Toronto area: Alex Farms, All the Best, Cheese Boutique, Cheese Emporium,
Chris’ Cheese Mongers and Scheffler’s Deli & Cheese (St. Lawrence Market),
La Fromagerie, Leslieville Cheese Market, McEwan Fine Foods, Nancy’s Cheese,
Pusateri’s, Thin Blue Line, Whole Foods or ask in the supermarket deli cheese
sections and some health food stores.
