The Good Dirt
Erica Crawford has seen “tremendous change” in New Zealand’s organic wine sector since Loveblock Wines joined the fold in 2008. Speaking in the lead-up to the Organic & Biodynamic Winegrowing Conference, Erica talks of the growth in organic vineyard area around New Zealand, and the burgeoning global demand for organic wine.
Organic viticulture consultant Bart Arnst – who is co-founder of Organic Winegrowers New Zealand, co-founder of organic wine label The Darling, and co-chair of the upcoming conference – joins Erica on the podcast, bringing three decades of experience to the discussion. Bart says the vibrancy of certified organic vineyards in Marlborough and around New Zealand is just part of the story, with organic and biodynamic philosophies influencing many conventional and regenerative viticulture operations as well.
The conference programme is intended to help everyone grow better, he says in the podcast. “Even if you will never be organic in your life, we hope that there’ll be something there that you can take away and go, ‘oh, I could actually use that’.”
