New Zealand - Protecting vines from an unpredictable nature | Worldwide Wine Civilizations

Far away, alone at the end of the world, an archipelago lies between the Tasman Sea and the Pacific Ocean: New Zealand. For 40 years, on the South Island, in the major wine-growing region of Marlborough, new pioneers have pulled off the daring gamble of growing vines. With nearly 17,000 hectares it is the largest wine-growing region in the country. Making wine in New Zealand means taking on a nature that is untamed and one that humans find hard to rival. And yet they succeed despite the problems of climate, the earthquakes and the ever-invading wild life. ------- Chapters ▷ 00:00 - Introduction ▷ 00:21 - Earthquake damages in the Marlborough valley ▷ 05:56 - The history of New Zealand viticulture ▷ 10:31 - Maori vine culture ▷ 14:37 - Sustainable agriculture ▷ 16:50 - Protecting vineyards from climate change ▷ 21:43 - Safety nets for vineyards ▷ 25:44 - Credits #wine #newzealand #ocean #vines #environment #fruit #agriculture #nature #climatechange ------- Watch all episodes of "Worldwide Wine Civilizations" here: https://bit.ly/wine_civilizations Subscribe to wocomoCOOK: https://goo.gl/9c1suR Follow wocomo on Facebook:   / wocomo   ------- The fruit of a long history, of a natural environment and of the labors of those for whom it is a passion, each vineyard tells the tale of a unique civilization.
