The following will assist you in completing your New Zealand Winegrowers Vineyard Register online. Vineyards are asked to complete their 2012 register and submit online by 30 th June 2012. If you have any questions relating to the NZW Vineyard Register Policy please contact Philip Manson, Science and Innovations Manager, pmanson@nzwine.com 09 306 5559. If you have any questions or problems completing the completion of the register please contact Janette McKibbin, 09 306 5524 or vineyardregister@nzwine.com Individual data will be treated confidentially and only collated data will be released to the industry. The Strategic Review undertaken by PwC highlighted the need for accurate vineyard statistics to improve information on grape supply capability and to help address bio-security issues. In part at least this recommendation reflected member criticisms that NZW vineyard data was inaccurate leading up to vintage 2008. While NZW has limited means to compel members to complete vineyard surveys the Board agrees that collection of such data is very important for the industry. As such the Board has agreed a new Vineyard Registration Policy. This new Policy states: All vineyards (grower or winery owned) contributing grapes to wines participating in New Zealand Winegrowers events and activities must be registered on the New Zealand Winegrowers Vineyard Register before 1 July of the year of vintage. The Policy will apply from vintage 2012 onwards. The effect will be that for 2012 wines to participate in any NZW organised event after July 1 2012 (eg. Romeo Bragato Wine Awards, the seminar programme, user-pays events etc) all vineyards that have contributed grapes into the production of that wine will need to be up to date on the vineyard register. To further enforce this, completion of the Vineyard Register will be a requirement for Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand accreditation in the 2012/13 season. The Board is aware this is placing an extra burden on growers and wineries. However, for most industry members the task of updating their vineyard data will be able to be completed online in as little as five or ten minutes. As such the Board considers the benefits from accurate data will markedly outweigh the compliance costs involved (primarily being members time).
