EXPERIENCE AOTEAROA
$150.00 per person
2.5 hours
With your own personal sommelier and storyteller to guide you, you’ll be taken on an exploration of three New Zealand wine regions sampling limited production wines from our family of fine wine brands — Smith & Sheth CRU, Pyramid Valley and Lowburn Ferry. These wines become the vehicle for this adventure, and together we dive headfirst into the world of wine.
The beauty of the studio is that for 2.5 hours, it becomes your space. To ask, to taste, to learn, to laugh, to share…the Smith & Sheth Wine Studio becomes a space removed from the everyday “busyness” of the world. Where you can stop, listen, taste and smell.
