Cirro Wines has a reputation for very high-quality wines but has recently been on the receiving end of a copycat attempt that has been found in the Chinese market.
David Tyney, co-owner of Cirro Wines, shares the story from discovering the counterfeits and his efforts protecting the reputation of the wine brand.
He also explores the challenges of vineyard life, including a recent frost in Marlborough that threatened their budding Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc crops.
Additionally, Tyney talks about his unique high-altitude project in the Yunnan Province, home to one of the highest vineyards on earth.
