Vineyards  Blenheim — Vineyards - Blenheim
 
Fromm Winery began planting its vineyard in Blenheim in 1992 at a time when the Marlborough region was mainly known for its white wines. Yet Georg Fromm realised that a climate favourable to Chardonnay should also produce very good reds, particularly Pinot Noir. Pioneering the red wine industry in Marlborough, he intuitively turned the company’s focus toward investing and experimenting in red wine production.
 
True to the original vision, over half the output is Pinot Noir, a strikingly powerful wine. With hand work, close planting and four individual vineyards under control of the Fromm team’ this direction proved to be very successful.
 
Fromm Pinot Noir 94 Reserve excelled in Pinot Tasting in Australia and Austria. Its successors have also achieved this benchmarking high standard.
