Pulau Waiheke di Teluk Hauraki, Selandia Baru adalah lokasi yang tepat untuk produksi anggur. Pada musim panas curah hujan rendan dan suhu tinggi secara konsisten, kondisi yang ideal untuk menanam tanaman anggur.


Waiheke Island in the Hauraki Gulf, New Zealand is the perfect location for wine production. Low summer rainfall and consistent high temperatures, Waiheke is an ideal place for growing vines.
 
Stephen White sebelumnya adalah penggemar kompetisi kapal pesiar hingga akhirnya di tahun 1981 Stephen kembali ke Selandia Baru. Stephen yang berbekal diploma hortikultura dan berpengalaman kerja di kebun anggur California dan Italia kemudian melakukan penelitian dan menyadari Waiheke sebagai lokasi terbaik memproduksi anggur di Selandia Baru.

Stephen White been in a cruise competitions until in 1981 Stephen returned to New Zealand. Holding a diploma of horticulture, Stephen also had worked in California and Italian vineyards before. Back in New Zealand, Stephen did some some research and realized that Waiheke is the best location to produce wine in New Zealand.

Dibantu teman dan keluarganya, Waiheke yang saat itu dianggap bukan lokasi potensial digarap oleh Stephen. Ia mulai menanam anggur dan zaitun hingga di tahun 1985 mulai memproduksi anggur. Di tahun 1987, anggur jenis klasik dengan campuran dominan Cabernet dan dinamakan Larose meroket dan membuat anggur produksi Stephen juga ikut meroket, perkebunan dengan nama Stonyridge Vineyard inipun menjadi terkenal.

Helped by friends and family, Stephen starts to grow vine in Waiheke which was not considered a potential site at that time. He began growing grapes and olives, then in 1985 he began producing wine. In 1987, the classic type of wine with a mixture of predominantly Cabernet named Larose skyrocketed and make Stephen's production famous instantly. His Stonyridge Vineyard estate also became famous, along with his wine going everywhere.

Salah satu favorit saya disini adalah bangunan merah, lokasi cafe dan wine tasting. Saya pun datang di saat yang tepat, saat permulaan musim gugur sehingga tanaman yang menutupi sebagian bangunan sedang mengering dan berwarna coklat kemerahan, simply beautiful!

One of my favorite location here is the red building for cafe and wine tasting. I came at the right moment, in the beginning of the fall so the plants which cover most buildings are dry and reddish brown, simply beautiful!
