WINE APPRECIATION
PRIVATE DINING
A 1-HourJourney Through Marlborough’s
World of Wine
Discover what makes Marlborough one of the most celebrated wine regions in the world with our immersive Wine Appreciation Session — an intimate two-hour experience designed for curious palates and wine lovers alike.
Guided by our knowledgeable Sommelier, you’ll begin with a relaxed conversation about the styles of wine you love and what you’d like to explore. From there, you’ll be taken on an interactive tasting journey tailored to your taste preferences — showcasing that there’s so much more to Marlborough than Sauvignon Blanc. Along the way, you’ll sample a curated selection of varietals that reveal the depth, texture, and character of Marlborough, as well as handpicked wines from other acclaimed regions across New Zealand.
This is not a lecture — it’s a celebration of discovery. Expect engaging stories, insider insights, and practical tasting tips that will leave you with a deeper appreciation of wine and the land that shapes it.
Your session also includes a stroll through our estate vineyard, where you’ll see firsthand how soil, climate, and care come together to create wines of extraordinary vibrancy and sense of place.
Whether you’re new to wine or a seasoned enthusiast, this experience is the perfect way to connect with the heart of Marlborough — glass in hand.
$110 per person (minimum 2 guests)

"SECRET SHACK"
An Unforgettable Marlborough Experience
Beside the crystal-clear waters of Spring Creek, our Secret Shack awaits — a secluded retreat within our gardens, with sweeping views over the estate vines and out to the Wither Hills, yet just a short stroll from the Hotel & Restaurant.
Here, time slows. Your private chef prepares and serves a three-course dinner created just for you — a celebration of flavour, season, and place.
Romantic, intimate, and entirely yours — perfect for an anniversary, engagement, or simply one of life’s beautiful “why not?” moments.
