Wednesday 17th February | 6pm - 8pm | The Wine Room, College Hill | Limited to 75 guests
One region, four cellar doors, one evening.
Following the success of our recent 'Deep Dive into Otago' evening, Martinborough’s finest are heading our way. Four producers from this small but mighty corner of the Wairarapa will be behind the barrel at The Wine Room, each pouring their own wines in a free-flowing, walk-around tasting. Wander at your own pace, go back for seconds of your favourites, and hear the stories behind each glass straight from the winemakers themselves.
Behind the barrel on the night:
Ata Rangi, Martinborough. Helen Masters pours from the estate that set the standard for Martinborough Pinot Noir and has never stopped raising it.
Oraterra, Martinborough. Founded by the ex Dry River team, and produced by hand in very small quantities, winemaker Wilco Lam showcases their wines that are sold primarily on allocation to members of its wine club, The Fold.
Poppies, Martinborough. Poppy & Shayne Hammond share the wines from the cellar door that you can never skip.
Martinborough Vineyard, Martinborough. A true founding name of the district, still crafting wines from the gravel terraces where it all began. Amongst others, they'll be pouring 2020 Marie Zélie Pinot Noir on the night, the estate’s rarely released flagship and a wine you won’t often see poured by the glass.
Canapés will be doing the rounds all evening, and David Nash will be your host.
Stay a little longer: book a table for dinner or a few snacks before or after the tasting, and keep the conversation flowing.
The best seat in Martinborough, without leaving town.
