Tutored tastings and vineyard tours

Sangiovese and Dolcetto are unusual grape varieties within NZ. We are happy to host your group and explain their origin in Italy and conduct a tutored tasting demonstrating why we are so enthusiastic about them. This takes about an hour and includes a walk into the vineyard. For details and bookings: contact@heronsflight.co.nz; or 09 950 6643, or 021025 88203
