Guides

Our guides have been developed by Ormond Nurseries in conjunction with experienced New Zealand viticulturists. Our guides are created to help you gain a basic understanding of the options you have and their relative strengths and weaknesses in local conditions. However, these guides provide general advice and do not allow for the soils and conditions of your site. We strongly encourage you to seek independent expert advice before making your rootstock choice.

Our vines are certified under the NZ Grafted Grapevine Standard. Click here to find out more.
