Raise your own cow Having tasted vineyard ownership, Nock began discussions with Deaker and Thomson about buying land in Otago with the potential to produce truly great wines. Land near Lake Wanaka was generating buzz and so the three decided to drive around the area scouting for empty blocks. Nock ultimately purchased just under five hectares of farmland, a small enough plot to avoid the need for Overseas Investment Office approval, which he planted in 2020 with roughly equal portions of pinot noir and chardonnay. He chose chardonnay based on a prediction from Jancis Robinson MW that New Zealand would one day produce some of the world’s best whites. The vines should come on stream in about two years and, based on successful nearby vineyards like Archangel, Nock’s hopes are high. But the small scale means he’s not overstretched. As he says, “Don’t go all in.”
