Here, specially for all Master of Wine students thirsty for techie detail, is a particularly technical profile of one of my favourite Marlborough producers, by Monty Waldin, author of Monty Waldin's Biodynamic Wine Guide 2011 (sold via www.lulu.com). For a full list of the other producers profiled, go to New Zealand's green turnaround.

Dog Point in Marlborough was founded by ex-Cloudy Bay grape-grower Ivan Sutherland and his wife Margaret, and ex-Cloudy Bay marketer James Healy and his wife Wendy. Cloudy Bay began in 1985. Ivan Sutherland joined in 1986 and James Healy in 1991.
