Guided by wine expert Susan Richards, this foray into the wines of New Zealand may leave you ready to book your flight.

Join us for an evening of travel and tasting through New Zealand while discovering the wonderful wines produced there that are not Sauvignon Blanc.  Tour the North Island of New Zealand where white wines made from Pinot Gris and Chardonnay shine. And where an island just off its coast is home to exceptional reds and blends made from Merlot, Syrah, Grenache, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The South Island showcases beautiful Pinot Noirs made amongst the majestic mountains and valleys of its wine country. It also boasts whites from unlikely grapes like Albarino and Riesling.

Guided by wine expert Susan Richards, you will gain a new appreciation for the craftsmanship of wine produced in this country and will be ready to book your flight.

All participants must be at least 21 years old.
