Technical Services
Technical services works in conjunction with our vineyard development management team on our managed vineyard sites.
Technical services also provide specific consultancy services to growers. This service is available throughout the year on a regular basis or on a as-needs basis, depending on the clients requirements. All advice provided is supported by professional viticultural training and experience and is based upon viticulture and wine industry best practice techniques.
With the increasing demand for quality wine grapes in the Australian wine industry, technical services assists the grower to maximise the quality of their fruit. Nepenthe's active R&D programs and attendance at both national and international conferences ensures the grower is provided with the latest developments in the industry and how they best improve quality.
