Scott’s well prepared for viticulture battle

Featherston man Scott Lanceley will be representing Wairarapa when he competes to be 2015’s Young Viticulturist of the Year this month. Lanceley, who works at Craggy Range as a vineyard operations worker, is “excited but apprehensive” about the competition and is studying in preparation. “It’s a big step up but the experience will be worth it.” The 26-year-old came up just short from winning the Wairarapa sector of the competition that was held at Te Kairanga Estate last week, placing second to Mark Langlands.
