"In 2001 I facilitated the formation of Grasshopper Rock, a dynamic equity partnership of five slightly crazy families. Good keen men and women, hunters and gatherers at heart who love to test themselves both physically and professionally.
Pinot Noir is the world’s most difficult grape to grow and is often called “the heart break grape”. The grape is thin skinned and temperamental, it needs understanding and nurturing in the vineyard. The best pinot noir needs to be grown right on the edge of the climatic limits and the cool Central Otago climate is certainly “growing on the edge”.
This is what makes it so exciting – because it is so difficult."
