Join us for a live Zoom tasting of a selection of from the very top of our 2022 Pinot Noirs from both Australia and New Zealand. As per our market survey we will be doing them blind then voting for 1st and 2nd place, after which we will unveil them.
The idea behind this is to eliminate the usual brand baise, pull them from various regions around both countries and determine as objectively as we can - who is top of the pops. We have also put a price ceiling of $80 on them to also help keep the playing field as level as possible...

We plan to offer a premium tasting above $80 along the same lines later in April.
We will decant and pour the wines (125ml each), seal under argon gas and have available for your collection from noon on Thursday 2 April. You can elect to have delivery that day for $15 if you wish. The argon will assure premium drinking quality for up to three weeks, so if you are unfairly distracted by travel or less important tasks, you are free to taste at your leisure along with the taped recording of the tasting which will be sent to all participants afterwards.
