VISITOR TESTIMONIALS
It was a well organised, and classy affair. Really enjoyed it! - Christine, Auckland
This was the best yet I feel, the right balance
of food and wine, a good variety of vineyards.
I loved there were more bubbles this year,
that’s what I was hoping for!
- Rachel, Wellington
I love that it is a fun and enjoyable event to attend, I pretty much come every year and
really enjoy the format.
