Fiona McMorran

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Fiona moved from Wellington in 2002 to help establish the vineyard with her sister and brother-in-law. She was in employment relations for 35 years, and continued working whilst the vineyard was being established. She is now retired, both from full-time employment and the vineyard, as the family have closed the business. She decided to write the history of the vineyard, initially just as a personal record for the family, but was encouraged to consider publishing her account. She now runs a farm stay in what was the old cellar door on her property, and keeps five goats. Fiona has had other writing published including a non-fiction book, journal articles and poetry.
