As I had an hour to spare, a group of us were hosted there by Christine Burki &#8211; and treated to a fantastic set of wines made locally by the other half of the duo &#8211; Raphael Burki. I contacted Christine afterwards and asked a bunch of questions about their new label&#8230;<\/p><p><strong>What\u2019s the background to B.wines ?\u00a0<\/strong>Raphael Burki started winemaking in the Wairarapa in 2009. 2013 we planted Lime Hill Vineyard. The decision to move to this area permanently was the result out of this. March 2015, before the first crop out of Lime Hill Vineyard, we moved to the Wairarapa. It\u2019s always been our goal to find a place where we can produce our own wines and make up our own business and do what we love.<\/p><p><strong>How do you approach selling your brand (and wine) as a new label &#8211; how will you get people to try a wine that&#8217;s new and they\u2019ve not heard of \u2013 or explain that it is the Lime Hill brand that some people may have tried before?\u00a0<\/strong>Direct marketing through sales at our cellar door; doing events (NZ meets Switzerland at Nobel Rot in August 2022); Instagram; we invite people when they signed up to our friends list and they will spread the word. Selling through wine shops the wines are getting recommended and not via supermarkets or bottle stores. Supplying a few restaurants in the region is good marketing as well. Sending our wines to wine writers like you, Bob Campbell, Cameron Douglas and Vinous.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-b297117 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"b297117\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-67d133d\" data-id=\"67d133d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0fb619e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0fb619e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"735\" height=\"551\" src=\"https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Lime-Hill-rainbow-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5436\" alt=\"Lime Hill\" srcset=\"https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Lime-Hill-rainbow-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Lime-Hill-rainbow-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Lime-Hill-rainbow-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Lime-Hill-rainbow-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Lime-Hill-rainbow.jpg 1632w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 735px) 100vw, 735px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-808a115 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"808a115\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0691c13\" data-id=\"0691c13\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dad2da4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"dad2da4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Can you tell me the story behind the vineyard?\u00a0<\/strong>Coming from Europe we still have the main idea of producing single vineyard wines.

What do think is next for New Zealand wines? Do you have specific plans?<\/strong><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>In our opinion you can\u2019t go with trends in winemaking if you grow your grapes yourself. Planting a vineyard is a long-term project where the next generation will get the benefit out of it. In New Zealand we still need to carry on with grape growing for another 50 years. This will be the time we will be able to produce even more amazing and complex wines out of this beautiful country. Therefore, the varieties in the region belong to here and are the perfect ones to grow in this climate and the type of soil. We strongly believe in the great potential of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in New Zealand.<\/p><p><strong>Is there someone you would love to try your wines, and why?\u00a0<\/strong>Always interesting is tasting our wines with other winemakers.
