A considered decision
1989 - While working overseas Owen maintained a strong connection to Central Otago and purchased a block of land on Felton Road in Bannockburn acknowledging its unique potential.

An early adopter
1999 - Bannockburn was recognized as a prime site for Pinot Noir production and Owen made the decision to plant the first vines on the property.
2003 - It was an easy decision to transition to organic management. By 2006, the vineyard was Biogro certified. Owen’s long term goal is that the land is productive, aesthetically pleasing and sustainable for future generations.

A life of contrasting experiences
Past and the present - Owen’s agricultural background saw him spend three decades living and working overseas. As a thinker and a planner - preparing for the future - he felt grateful that he could contribute to improving the livelihoods of subsistence farmers in isolated and war-torn countries in Africa.
