Ep 288: Martinborough, NZ and the Glory of Wellington Wine Country with Simone Madden-Grey
No, it's not a typo: Martinborough is a quality enclave in the larger Wellington Wine Country of New Zealand, which we discuss in depth in this episode. Simone Madden-Grey returns to tell us about the stunning Pinot Noir, citrusy Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling, up and coming Syrah, and other excellent Wellington wines that must be on your radar!
Here are the show notes:
Wellington Wine Country Overview
In 2016 three wine regions of the Wairarapa Valley in the lower north island formally launched Wellington Wine Country: Masterton, Gladstone, and Martinborough The area is small -- just 3% of national plantings and 1% of national production, but represents 10% of producers
Location
The southern part of New Zealand's North Island 35 miles (55km) north-east of Wellington (1 hr drive), New Zealand's capital city, in a wide river valley between Rimutaka mountain range and eastern Wairarapa hills Climate/Terroir
Semi-maritime, dry climate – rain shadow of the Tararua Ranges with blustery winds Cool spring and autumn seasons, hot summer days with cool nights - long growing season Martinborough Terrace: a crescent shaped area on the edge of a river terrace formed by the Ruamahunga and Huangarua rivers with gravel soils that drain well and stress the vines (in a good way) Mountain ranges and hills Remutaka and Tararua Ranges to the west protect from winds off Tasman Sea Aorangi Ranges, western mountain ranges protect area from cold southerly winds coming in off the Cook Strait and together with the western moutnain ranges, also funnel cool breezes up from the Cook Strait Soil
River terraces in Martinborough with pockets of clay and quartz-threaded greywacke (type of coloured sedimentary sandstone formed by river deposits) and volcanic basalt. Alluvial soils can be up to 15m deep in Martinborough Climate
Semi-maritime climate with high sunshine hours, cool Springs and Autumns, warm Summers Warm, low rainfall, relatively long, dry growing season, low humidity and low disease pressure Diurnal variation: Summer temps during the day 30˚C (86˚F) to 10˚C (50˚F) at night Frost is an issue, very windy at times throughout the year, particularly in spring
Sub Regions: North to south
Masterton: Largest town in Wairarapa,first area grapes were planted in the region. Known for Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir
Gladstone: Just south of Masterton, free-draining river terraces - Shallower terraces than of Martinborough and nearby. Clay pockets – planted Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc with high aromatics.
Martinborough – about 30 wineries: Colonial village is surrounded by small vineyards, family-owned producers – highly respected boutique wineries. Lowest rainfall of any area in the North Island and reliably cool climate for Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling and other aromatic whites.
Te Muna: Southeast of the township with stonier alluvial gravel soils, windier growing conditions and a slightly cooler climate than Martinborough. Escarpment and Craggy Range are here. Wine Style: Red, white, sparkling (usually Methode Traditionnelle), rosé and sweet wines are all produced in the region
Pinot Noir: Thicker skins and smaller yields contribute an aromatic, savory, dark fruited profile with good acidity and potential for age. Sauvignon Blanc: leading white grape variety, very important for export. More herbaceous and citrus driven, with mineral notes -- less of the big fruit style of Marlborough Pinot Gris: Trying to coax a spicier, more complex style with pear and white stone fruit characters Chardonnay: For the last decade growers pick earlier to attain lower alcohol, more natural acidity -- lighter less tropical style. Varying degrees of new oak and use of MLF, lees contact and stirring, but the goal is elegance Riesling: Good acidity, very lemon-lime in flavor Grüner Veltliner, Gewürztraminer, Pinot Blanc, Syrah and some Bordeaux varieties The producer list!
High-profile small producers: Ata Rangi, Margrain, Dry River, Escarpment, Te Kairanga, Martinborough Vineyard Paddy Borthwick in Gladstone Larger but still good producers: Palliser, Craggy Range Second labels: Martinborough Vineyard’s Te Tera (UK, NZ, Oz only) Palliser Pencarrow (UK, NZ, Oz only) Escarpment The Edge (UK, NZ, Oz only)

Design
Designed by Angelo Scarnera, an innovative craft brewer from Brew Wharf in Vinopolis, Borough Market, London (that's him on the label). He is also a drum and bass DJ and a former chef. I met Angelo on one of my regular visits to the capital and when he saw me peering like an innocent child through the glass side wall of his microbrewery he beckoned me in. I told him back then of my ambition to open a microbrewery and have visited him several times since. I had told him about my brewing of saisons and he was intrigued. One day in a text message he suggested we do a collaboration, and I readily agreed. He already had the idea to brew a massively hopped Belgian saison with a New Zealand variety called Dr Rudi. This is so named after Dutch scientist Dr Rudy Roborgh who ran the NZ Hop Development Programme in the 1960s and developed the first varieties of triploid hops (without seeds which are the bane of brewers, and wonderful agricultural properties). This one was former called Super Alpha but by today's standards it is not really a super-high alpha acid (bittering potential) variety, so it was renamed in his honour. I grew up the yeast starter (Wyeast Saison WLP 556) and after blagging a bag of malt off the Kernel Brewery (thanks to Evin) we were in business. It was a long brew day with problems with the pump, probably caused by the spices we added, but we got there. The yeast took a good while to munch its way through the fermentables, but it kept on going and fermented right down to a dry 1.005 from 1.051. With so many Dr Rudi hops in the boil and the steep it never did get the dry hopping with Calypso that Angelo originally had in mind. I think it is a great beer and just right for the bottle.
Tasting notes
Moderate carbonation with a good white head that fades quite quickly. Colour is the typical pale orange of a saison. The first taste tells you this is both wild and intensely hopped. A little acetic acid on the nose is quickly overwhelmed by the bitter-sweet orange zest flavour of the late hopping. That yeast, which is usually to the for in a saison is almost kicked to one side but it comes back in the after taste, asserting its dry, lactic tang on the tongue. This is very much a new-wave style of beer absolutely busting with hop flavour, a new twist on a traditional Belgian farmhouse style. So, being pale, strong and massively hopped, is it a Belgian IPA - that is, an IPA brewed with an ascertive Belgian saison yeast? Or is it a South Pacific or New Zealand saison? You decide. In craft brewing it really isn't that important to stick to style. In fact convention is anathoma to craft brewers who are inventing the future of beer. Angelo is right up there with the best of them.
This beer is produced without the use of any finings, filtering or pasteurisation, so all the flavours of the ingredients are preserved for your enjoyment.
