Fiona Turner began her winemaking experience in Marlborough over 15 years ago and in that time has become one of the most respected winemakers in the region, being part of the Kiwi-Oeno wine consultancy team with Matt Thomson, Glenn Thomas and Alana McGettigan. Between them, they have had a hand in countless award winning wines. Fiona's own venture is Tinpot Hut Wines, benefits from work throughout New Zealand and overseas, but is focussed on Marlborough varieties and Hawke's Bay Syrah. Fiona and her husband Hamish's 20 ha vineyard at Blind River in the Awatere Valley is becoming a growing source of fruit for the Tinpot Hut wines and a growing influence on the styles, providing clarity of fruit, zestiness, energy and an elegance of scale. Here are four of the latest releases. www.tinpothut.co.nz
