NEW ZEALAND WINE.
At a meeting of Auckland grapegrowers who had met in the Federal Hall last Thursday for the purpose of protesting against the proposal to allow Australian grapes to be imported into New Zealand. Mr Bollard, the member for Eden, who is one of those strongly against the proposal, said in the course of his remarks, that he thought every grapegrower who made wine should be allowed to sell a bottle of it to his neighbour, and that every restaurant should be permitted on payment of a small license fee, to sell customers a glass of New Zealand wine at a moderate price. The encouragement of wine-drinking would be a step towards temperance.
