00:00Morning, I'm Jesse and I'm here at Abergavenny vineyards. We planted our first vines last

00:07year, 2023, over 8 acres, we've got 12,000 vines, over 4 varieties as well. So we've

00:14got Pinot Noir, Solaris, Rondo and Pinotin. We've gone for the new hybridised vines other

00:20than Pinot Noir, which means it's reduced disease pressure across the vineyard and also

00:25to help reduce disease pressure for low input farming and viticulture, we've gone for wider

00:30spacing in between the vines. So our inter-row width is 2.5 metres and we've got 1.2 metres

00:37intervine as well. This allows a lot more airflow through the vineyard, through the

00:41growing season and we're trying to grow our vines as straight as possible and not let

00:45too much foliage go out to the sides, which also enables more airflow through the vines.

00:51Having wider spacing also enables us to use the same machinery for our apple orchards,

00:54which reduces costs overall and makes it more economical for us to grow the vines. Over

00:59the future years, we're planning on planting another 40,000 to 50,000 vines and it will

01:03keep the same sort of spacing, at the moment it's working and as you can see the vines

01:08are growing well.
