Transforming Vineyards: Development, Redevelopment, and Sustainable Solutions
At Pridham Viticulture, we provide comprehensive services for both new vineyard development and vineyard redevelopment, ensuring your land reaches its full potential.
Whether you’re starting from scratch or transforming an existing vineyard, our expertise, innovative methods, and sustainable practices deliver exceptional results.
New Vineyard Development
Establishing a new vineyard is a complex process, and our team is here to guide you every step of the way. Our services include:
- Site Assessment and Soil Preparation: We begin with a detailed evaluation of your land, focusing on soil health, topography, and climate. From there, we implement soil conditioning techniques, such as organic matter enrichment and pH adjustments, to create optimal conditions for vine establishment.
- Vine Selection and Planting: Leveraging our industry connections, we source premium-quality vine stock suited to your terroir and production goals. Our experienced team ensures precise planting with proper spacing, depth, and orientation to promote uniform growth and efficient management.
- Irrigation and Trellis Installation: We design and install irrigation systems and trellis structures tailored to your vineyard’s needs, supporting vine health and long-term productivity.
- Post-Planting Care: After planting, we provide guidance on vine training, pruning, and pest management to foster robust growth and set your vineyard up for success.
Vineyard Redevelopment
Transforming an existing vineyard into a modern, efficient operation requires skill and planning. At Pridham Viticulture, we specialise in:
- Reconstruction and Retrofitting: Whether you’re upgrading infrastructure, changing vine spacing, or improving soil health, we use proven techniques to ensure seamless redevelopment while minimising disruption to your operations.
- Land Rehabilitation: For underperforming sites, we offer soil renovation, erosion control, and replanting services to revitalise your vineyard.
- Eco-Trellis Systems: As a regional leader in sustainable vineyard practices, we have adopted the innovative Eco-Trellis System. This eco-friendly alternative to CCA and creosote-treated timber posts reduces environmental impact while maintaining durability and performance.
- Sustainable Tools and Equipment: Our operations incorporate the latest low-emission electric tools, which are safe, quiet, and efficient, along with modern tractors that meet the highest emission reduction standards. These innovations enable us to complete projects sustainably and with minimal environmental impact.
