Testimonials

I’ve worked with TVM for many years. Even though I know Michael personally as a friend, he has always acted in a timely and professional manner. His capability at maintaining his equipment is a key point in his reliability. Great harvesting and total vineyard management.

Barwite Vineyards have utilised the services of TVM over many years for a range of tasks from pre-pruning through to harvesting. We have found the TVM team to be professional and diligent in all their tasks carried out on our vineyard.

Barwite Vineyard

Timo Ploschke – Vineyard Manager

We have used TVM since they began operations; from pre-pruning to harvesting our grapes. We use Mick and his team as they are thorough, experienced and pay attention to detail. Mick always heat treats his equipment and meticulously sets them up to suit our vines before beginning any operation. He uses experienced operators and spotters while harvesting and we are extremely happy with his work.

Ferraro Wines

Tony Ferraro – Winemaker/Owner

Total Vineyard Management has been good for us because they have the specialised gear we need for trimming and leaf plucking; there are not too many around who have these machines. When we plan out the job Mick provides input and because of his experience and knowledge, it’s valuable input - I always consider his opinion before making the final decision on what needs to be done. Working with Mick is a very easy relationship; he’s easy to work with, nothing is too much of a problem and he does a good job. He’s also able to work flexible hours, working around what we are doing in the vineyard.

Ian Muller – Vineyard Manager

Mick has been doing our mechanical pre-pruning for twelve years and we have developed a good relationship through those years – we love having him here. His service is very efficient. He does a good job, is very professional and is cost-effective. What’s also important is that he comes when he says he will and gets the work done.

Andrew Sutherland-Smith – Winemaker/Owner

I have worked with Michael and his team from Total Vineyard Management for 8 years now. Michael has been able to provide us with pre-pruning (barrel pruning), canopy trimming, vine removal & straw mulching. Michael's professional approach and industry knowledge is first class and I can trust he will complete the job to a high standard in reasonable time. I would highly recommend Total Vineyard Management to any business looking for viticultural assistance.

Joel Chambers – Farm & Vineyard Manager

I have been using the services of Total Vineyard Management for a number of years at three of our vineyards in the Rutherglen wine region. The team are efficient and hard-working and the machinery and equipment they operate is all well-maintained and tidy. I would highly recommend the services of Total Vineyard Management.

Nick Brown – Winemaker/Director

When I first used the services of Total Vineyard Management in 2006, their mechanical Visio pre-pruning saved us over $50,000 in labour costs. We have used them ever since. I rely on their professionalism and their expertise for mechanical pre-pruning, machine harvesting and under-vine maintenance; as well as more technically demanding tasks such as compost spreading, mid-row cover cropping and under-vine mulching. Total Vineyard Management has never let me down. Michael and the team have proven themselves to be perfectly reliable, honest and adaptable to the specifics of every task in every vineyard. Thanks to their extensive knowledge of viticultural machinery, their help has been invaluable in the implementation of true precision viticulture in our vineyards. With TVM it’s a partnership. They care about our business and are part of the team, which means we achieve our goal in terms of work quality whilst keeping the running costs to a minimum.

Thomas Lefebvre – Chief Viticulturist

I’ve known Mick for 20 years and now observe him and how he works with my clients. Mick’s strengths are his reliable service, his amicable nature and his background in growing grapes. This is an advantage to vineyard managers because people who have grown grapes treat the vineyard with more respect than those who haven’t. He’s got good knowledge of the industry and processes and is able to make good judgement calls as required while he is on the job. He doesn’t need to wait to speak to the owner or vineyard manager because he has the experience and understands the vineyard. TVM is renowned for reliable services; Mick does what he says he’s going to do and the quality of work is very good. Vineyard managers and owners are looking for value for money. TVM provides good value for money and the reliability is where it really counts.

We have been working with Total Vineyard Management for more than 10 years. Michael has his finger on the pulse in the industry; we trust his knowledge and advice on things like fruiting and seasons. That’s really valuable to us in addition to his very reliable services. Michael is easy to contact and always rings back. When he makes an arrangement, he sticks to the arrangement he made. That makes running our farming operation much smoother and less stressful. TVM performs our harvesting, summer trimming, mechanical pre-pruning, fungicide and herbicide spraying as well as supplying reliable labour crews. Their equipment is up to date and using TVM means we can focus on running our farming operation. We have built up a personal relationship through the years and …everything is just right.

John Woodruff – Owner

We’ve been using TVM for mechanical pre-pruning since 2007. Mick and his team are neat and tidy and professional. Their machinery is always kept in really good condition and the Visio pruner does a much more impressive job and at a much quicker and efficient rate, so the vines are cleaner prior to hand pruning. Mick looks after his customers and does a good job at a good rate.
