Details: This sculpture celebrates David Herd, a pioneering figure in Marlborough’s early wine industry and one of the region’s first winemakers. Herd established a vineyard and winery at Meadowbank in the 1870s, helping lay the foundations for Marlborough’s long association with wine and viticulture. The sculpture recognises his contribution to the region’s wine heritage and commemorates the pioneering spirit that continues to shape Marlborough’s wine industry.
