said. Nelson wines from the Middle-Earth vineyards will also be sold from the furniture site, to complement the Wangapeka cheeses right next to it. The businesses all share the same 1920s building that was once the site of a dairy factory, then Te Mania and Richmond Plains wines followed by Cruella's natural fibre boutique. Mr Haswell said the emphasis for the Grape Escape was on trying to find a balance of tenants that were complementary in terms of the big picture for the complex. "The last three years have been a stale, dormant environment because we've had empty space, but we worked to attract dynamic tenants that match each other," he said. "It's taken a while but we're now fully tenanted." Along with the cafe and bar run by John Appelman and Carol Shirley, the complex hosts kitchen furniture design firm 3D Design, a gallery and gift shop, Orinoco Wines, a boutique garden shop, and now the furniture and cheese businesses. A specialty lavender garden was about to be planted, leading to the development of a retail store selling essential lavender oils. Mr Haswell said he was particularly pleased that Wangapeka Cheese was moving to the Grape Escape as he had been trying to attract a cheese-making business for a long time.
