Congratulations to Jonathan Hunt from Delegats, Crownthorpe Vineyard, who became the Bayer Hawke’s Bay Young Viticulturist of the Year 2018 on Thursday 21st June.
This is the third year Hunt has competed and he is thrilled to have won the title and to be going on to represent Hawke’s Bay in the National Final.
Congratulations also goes to Nick Putt from Villa Maria who came second and Grace Petrie from Trinity Hill who came third.
Hunt demonstrated his strong viticultural skills as he excelled in many of the sections including pests & diseases, the speech, budgeting, machinery, the interview and nutrition showing he has a good cross section of knowledge required to run a vineyard and represent his region in the National Final.
