Vineyard Solutions Ltd

Fruit & Vine editor Rachel Hicks chatted with Vineyard Solutions Ltd owner Ian Phillips to nd out more about his vineyard establishment company

Q: Tell us about you, your background and experience within the industry

A: VSL has been involved in UK viticulture since 2010. I have seen rst-hand a vast array of vineyards across England and Wales from site selection stage to vine/rootstock selection, trellis choice, machinery purchases, right through to winemaking and the challenges of selling wine pro tably. This experience gained by installing vineyards in all areas of England and Wales and at all elevations is priceless, providing a knowledge bank from which I can advise customers on establishing their future vineyard.

Q: Introduce us to the rest of the team

A: The team are all actively involved on a daily basis. Paul and Kelvin are a great pairing, and work with myself planting and trellising in the drier months; in January and February they are usually pruning our 20 acres of vines at Galleywood.

Neal runs the trellis post and anchor wire manufacturing unit. It keeps him busy for most of the year, or he can be found in the workshop servicing machinery.

Nicola runs the o ce for both VSL and Galleywood Vineyards. When she’s not doing that she will be in the kitchens designing fabulous French patisserie. She is actually a fully trained Cordon Bleu chef.

Q: What makes your company different to other vineyard establishment companies?

A: The di erence is we practice what we preach –we’re growers and winemakers ourselves (see www. galleywood.wine). We are licensed vine importers, and have our own cold storage that’s utilised until the time of customer planting. We own a Wagner vine planter with GPS control. Our trellising products are either manufactured or in stock at our depot, so adjustments to orders won’t cause headaches and delays with overseas reordering.

There’s a lot of bluster in this industry, and it’s easy to get poor advice – the impact of which can often last for the life of the vineyard.

The cohesion between winery design, vineyard design and expected yields is important for success. We don’t sub-contract work out, so a personal contact with myself is always maintained.

Q: Tell us about your unique Oxford trellising system

A: We wanted a durable trellis post that could withstand mechanised vineyard maintenance and to be robust enough to attach frost protection or monitoring equipment to. Our posts are made of 2mm gauge steel. There’s a constant supply of cheaper products appearing on the market that come and go that just don’t work very well, and I didn’t want this at Galleywood or for VSL customers. Our standard trellis system is based on VSP, though we’ve designed di erent hook con gurations and cross arms for Scott Henry and for strawberry farms also, allowing for overhead bird netting.

The guards we use are the only fully removable and reusable/resaleable model available that doesn’t rely on the weakness of memory to seal against herbicides. Structurally sound and durable is our policy for each component. We also have a sheer hook on our end posts that will help save the end post if it’s struck by machinery.

Q: What do you think are the primary challenges for new growers?

A: The critical issue moving forward is to be e cient, as once the honeymoon of planting a vineyard ceases, the ine ciencies in machinery operations become more profound. It is not a matter of increasing sta numbers – it is the productivity per man that’s important. Training and empowerment I think is the way forward.

Q: What are the most common mistakes you see growers making?

A: Soil prep failures, planting across slopes, planting in frost pockets, falling for the trap of employing managers from other wine regions with exotic names who have little or no idea of essential practices for successful viticulture in localised UK conditions...

Q: Where do you see the UK viticulture industry going in the next 20 years?

A: I think there is not enough solidarity in the UK to create a signi cant sales group, so it will be a battle of the brands. Many consumers have no idea what the subtleties of wine production method di erences are, and so satisfaction in a brand will triumph. Twenty years ago, the industry was talking about retailers needing to o er an immersive experience for their customers and this is the way forward, thereby adding value to the bottle of wine being sold.

Q: What do you consider to be the three most importance pieces of advice you could offer to a new grower who is just starting out?

• If you think something you’ve been advised doesn’t seem quite right it probably isn’t

• You don’t have to plant everything in one year; you’re better o getting your act together generally in the rst year and then expanding

• Work backwards from projected realistic sales to winery tank sizes to vineyard size and individual variety volumes.

Q: Who do you most admire/respect in the industry and why?

A: I think the guys who pioneered the current wave of planting vine varieties that create sparkling wines comparable to high-end Champagne get my respect.
