Wither Hills

Wither Hills

The next morning we left from the adjacent village of Blenheim, to follow Kay Greens recommendations to purchase some local black cherries, in peak season, and to see some of the local vineyards whose landscapes were of note, before we headed south towards Christchurch. Wither Hills Vineyard was our first stop that morning. A new and very high styled Vineyard, which utilized a native sedge, Carex buchanii for a very strong landscape effect.




Clearly there is money in wine, the quality and scale of construction of these vineyards belies it.
