Winetopia starts with a line-up of incredible wineries who gather to make share with you their best drops. It's a journey of discovery and it's one worth taking.

Rest assured there will be plenty of delicious food to go with your wine finds. We'll publish the offering here before the event.
FOOD & WINE MASTERCLASSES
We've asked some of the most knowledgable wine gurus in Aotearoa to join us for some intimate 40 minute masterclasses. Bob Campbell (Master of Wine), Emma Jenkins (Master of Wine) and many more will be joining us! For a small ticket price you get a big wine adventure.
