Wines from Down Under
Australia and New Zealand might constantly argue about which country invented the pavlova but I think we can all agree that both countries produce some excellent wines and are now giving lots of ‘old world’ wines a run for their money. Most people associate New Zealand wines with super fresh and zesty Sauvignon Blancs and Australia with big and bold Shiraz (aka Syrah) but both countries produce so much more! This tasting turns traditional views on its head slightly with a Chardonnay and Syrah from New Zealand and a Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir from Australia. You won’t be disappointed, we promise!
All our tasting packages are based on a per person basis meaning the bigger the group, the more competitive prices we can offer! They range from £20 per person upwards. Please contact us for pricing for each package
