    Details

    For one night only, 29 Hawke’s Bay wineries will be together in one fantastic venue, showcasing over 200 wines.

    Nicholas Buck chairman of Hawke’s Bay Winegrowers says this year ‘Hot Red Hawke’s Bay wine shows are set to be a ‘not to be missed’ event with the biggest line up of wineries the event has ever seen! There will be lots of 2013 new releases not yet on the shelves and a special something to taste with wineries bringing a ‘under the table’ wine along.’

    Join us for a wonderful evening tasting award winning Hawke’s Bay wine and delicious canapés.

    Meet with inspirational winemakers as they introduce you to their elegant Hawke’s Bay wines. Chat with them to gain an insight in to the Hawke’s Bay wine region, their top wine tips and picks, as well as a sneak preview of the 2013 vintage. There will also be the opportunity to order wines direct from the wineries at special “Hot Red” Prices. Don’t forget to request the ‘under the table wine’ from wineries for a taste of something special.
