"Kia ora – Brent Pickering from New World Hastings here. Keen to discover a new top drop in time for summer?

My favourite wine from this year’s New World Wine Awards is The Hunting Lodge Expressions Delicate Rosé 2019. I’m excited to crack a chilled bottle (or two) of this with friends over the hot Hawkes Bay summer. It has a nice light fruity flavour, a crisp finish and most importantly, it is super drinkable!

Come into your local New World and explore the Top 50 Gold-medal winning wines – we have winners for every budget. Plus join us for complimentary wine sampling and try before you buy.

OneSight Programme Manager for Australia/New Zealand Jenny Harnett says it was an honour to partner with The Salvation Army to deliver these clinics to communities in need. “We believe that glasses unlock potential, providing opportunities for students to learn, for people to work and earn a living, to drive, to read, and to support their families."

Thanks again OneSight!

The small Chardonnay vineyard with a careful selection of clones produces a succulent house wine thoroughly enjoyed by guests from all around the world.
