Driving Vineyard Performance: Biolchim Field Day at Auntsfield Estate

With the support of Farmlands, Biolchim recently hosted a fantastic Field Day at Auntsfield Estate in Marlborough.

It was great to see representatives from conventional and organic wine companies, growers, and vineyard management contractors coming together to connect, share insights, and explore new opportunities.

Our team, Riccardo Busi and Johnny McMillan, led valuable discussions around the use of biostimulant tools to optimise vineyard productivity and fruit quality.

A highlight of the day was visiting the trial site, where interim results were presented from both young and mature vine blocks.

The trials demonstrated the impact of two key biostimulant strategies:

• Fylloton to support rachis development

• Folicist to enhance flowering and fruit set

Harvest yield and quality parameters will be assessed in the coming weeks — and we’re looking forward to sharing those results.

We wrapped up the day with a BBQ lunch, giving everyone time to continue conversations and strengthen connections within the industry.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us — collaboration like this is what drives innovation forward. 🍇🌿
