Technical Workshop postponed

Written by  Staff Reporters

The New Zealand Society for Viticulture and Oenology has put its Alternative Varietals technical workshop on hold until New Zealand is back to Covid-19 Alert Level 1.

"It is disappointing of course, but we cannot in good conscience progress our workshop on its original date," says society Chair Jeff Sinnott.

"It is critical that we protect our colleagues and industry from any potential risk."
