Crushed Grapes: Southern Cellar and Soil

For this chapter of Crushed Grapes, we’re travelling South. Decantering tales from two of New Zealand’s top wineries, swirled alongside an indulgent showcase of Canterbury truffles.  

Marlborough’s Dog Point brings the cool, coastal swagger; Central Otago’s Wet Jacket answers with alpine attitude and sun-soaked depth. Same island, wildly different moods, poured side by side so you can taste the difference.

On the plate, a truffle-infused menu celebrates the season’s most decadent treasure, with George’s truffles sourced from Ruakākā woven through each course. Earthy, aromatic, unapologetically indulgent, designed to mirror the depth and intrigue of the wines beside them. 

With the winemakers in tow, expect tales from the vines, regional rivalries, and a few well-earned secrets spilled along the way.
