REALLY GOOD
1st WINE TASTING
QT Wellington, Wellington
This is a Pegasus Bay tasting event tonight and it was great. Definitely one of the best wineries in my book. There were nibbles on offer but I forgot to take a photo. The winery restaurant is also highly recommended. I’ve only been once and hope to visit again.
2nd SUMMER WINE
Cañete, Barcelona
I just said yes to what the bartender suggested. I don't know what was in this but it was lovely.
3rd ROSE
Atlas, Wellington
Happy hour - $10 Luna Estate Rose
4th POPPIES SAUVIGNON SEMILLON
Poppies Martinborough, Martinborough
Got the day off today for an event here at Martinborough but it was postponed due to covid so decided to still come for one night. Staying at a nearby lodge and first time to try Poppies wine. I’m not a fan of Sauvignon Blanc but this was nice.
PRETTY GOOD
6th PINOT NOIR
Social Kitchen, New Plymouth
Archangel Pinot Noir 2015. My first time to try.
7th BLIND WINE FLIGHT
Noble Rot Wine Bar, Wellington
Can’t remember the names/grape variety (they were not the common ones) but the middle one was from Trinity Hill winery. The red was a Lebanese wine and was a blend with Cab Sav.
8th MARTINBOROUGH VINEYARD LATE HARVEST RIESLING 2002
Wharekauhau Country Estate, Ocean Beach
I’m not much of a dessert wine fan but this was pretty good. Not too sweet.
