Join us for a long anticipated shop floor tasting as we welcome back our friend, Kirsten Searle of Matawhero, to take us through a selection of white wines from Gisborne, New Zealand.

The Matawhero journey started with two New Zealand wine pioneers from the 1960s. Today the story continues around the drive and determination of Kirsten and Richard Searle who purchased the Matawhero vineyard and winery in Gisborne from Denis Irwin in 2008. They are the trusted Kaitiaki (guardians) of Matawhero and continue to develop the iconic winery and share the distinctive wine styles of the Tairawhiti-Gisborne region. They produce famous New Zealand Chardonnay and other wines including aromatic whites like Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris and Sauvignon Blanc.

Please arrive at 18:50 for a 19:00 start. The tastings usually last for around two hours.
No physical ticket required, just bring a copy of your order confirmation (on a phone is fine).
Please confirm when booking if you have any allergies or dietary requirements. Please note that our cheese & wine tastings cannot be tailored to accommodate strict vegetarian diets due to the nature of our presentation.
Strictly no under 18's.
Tickets are non-refundable.
We adore our wonky old building. All we regret is that the staircase to our first floor bathroom and tasting room isn't overly forgiving and as such rules us out from being accessible. So sorry for the inconvenience it may cause.
Please note that we kindly ask attendees not to wear strong aftershave or perfume for the event. This sounds like a silly request, but we try and keep our tasting room as a controlled environment so that only the wine fumes invade our nostrils.
