The Aussies and Kiwis are good mates, with lots in common. Fine wine, great food, stunning scenery, the cool Southern Ocean and also our cool Antipodean attitude.
Our wines are an expression of our distinctive terroirs and the vibrant communities that craft them. Perfecting traditional techniques and inventing our own ways of doing things, we push the boundaries in the pursuit of the most diverse, thrilling wines in the world.
Join us for this special tasting to refresh your knowledge of Australian and New Zealand wine, revisit old favourites, challenge your perceptions and discover new wines.
Taste the wines that have put Australia and New Zealand in the spotlight and discover exciting new styles that are coming out of the two countries today. Explore more than 350 wines from 92 producers, ranging from international superstars to small boutique newbies. You’ll find wines from 32 regions across Australia and New Zealand, and 23 different grape varieties.
The line-up includes regional heroes, new vintages from iconic producers, alternative grape varieties, innovative new-wave styles, and certified organic wines. Australian wines include old vine Barossa Shiraz, Tasmanian still and sparkling, alternative varieties from McLaren Vale, and Chardonnay from Australia’s first Indigenous-owned wine company.
This is also an opportunity to meet winemakers and winery owners. From family-owned wineries passed down through generations to trailblazing disruptors who push the boundaries day after day, you’ll get the lowdown on Aussie wine straight from the growers and makers.
Meet fifth generation custodian Guy Adams (Owner, Metala Wines) with the oldest family-owned Cabernet Sauvignon vines in the world in South Australia’s Langhorne Creek, and Murray McHenry (Owner, McHenry Hohnen Vintners) from Margaret River who uses biodynamic practices and ‘hands-off’ winemaking.
