Tours & Events

My wine tours are small (a maximum of 10 tourists), well-curated and a lot of fun. They’re about immersion in a wine region’s essential 3 P’s – the people, the place and the pour. 

I have led several successful tours to Burgundy and Central Otago over the past few years. There is a Burgundy tour planned for 2024 which will be advertised here soon. 

Wine Events

NZ v France – A Wine Test Match

An event I’m currently offering is proving popular. It’s called ‘NZ v France – a Wine Test Match’, which pretty much sums it up. Can a champagne outscore a Marlborough méthode? Will a Central Otago pinot finesse its way past a Côte de Nuits? The result is in the hands (and tastebuds) of the assembled gathering. By the end of the evening, wine, food, song and fun are all winners. It works equally well as a staff get-together or as a client entertainment option.
