Join us in for a spectacular tasting of wines from the Te Kano Estate, Central Otago on the South Island of New Zealand. The tasting will be presented by Natalie Walsh, the Head of Sales & Marketing. Te Kano, the Māori word for The Seed, is a family–owned wine estate in Central Otago, focused on producing the best Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, and other interesting varieties and styles.
The brand is a true estate operation from grape to glass, with 4 vineyards, a cellar door, winery and bottling line, ensuring quality & consistency. The Lloyd family are passionate about the land and are committed to its regeneration by using organic practices and planting native flora and fauna on land which was sluiced during the gold rush in the 1800s. The family believe they are caretakers of the land and by doing so, will leave a legacy, reminding us that the seeds we plant today will blossom for generations to come.
