An evening to remember, full of great stories, w**e, food and company! 🍾🍴

On Saturday evening we hosted a Meet the W**emaker evening with Georgia, our head w**emaker here at Greystone. We had guests who travelled far and wide! It was such a pleasure to see so many familiar faces, and make new friends.

We can’t wait until the next one! Join our w**e club for first access or keep an eye on our socials. 🎉

It’s Day 5 of Organic W**e Week 🐑🍷

Our highwire vines gave us room to graze sheep beneath the rows, and they've become one of the best stories our kitchen tells. Raised on the estate, used through the year on our menu, whole-animal butchery in house. Pair it with our 2021 Vineyard Ferment Pinot Noir and you've got two ingredients grown on the same soil, meeting on the same plate.

This is what makes Organic W**e Week so special to us: It’s not just what's in the bottle itself, but everything else that comes with it too! Read more about our organic practices in our restaurant on our website. https://www.greystonew**es.co.nz/organics-in-our-restaurant/

Find us at Down to Earth at Jacuzzi Bar, Auckland, pouring our award-winning organic w**es alongside a room full of producers who farm organically.

It's Organic W**e Week!! 🌱🍇 And we hope you're as excited as we are to celebrate!

We've been farming this way for nearly a decade now, and it's great to see some green shoots start to appear. The global market's sitting at north of $13 billion and growing more than 10% a year, as more and more w**emakers ditch synthetic chemicals and more & more drinkers ask questions about what's actually in their glass.

New Zealand's part of that story is honestly something to be proud of. We're a small country punching well above our weight, with one of the most exciting and expanding organic w**e scenes in the world.

This week's about celebrating that community and sharing our own journey. Follow along through **enz to find out why organics matters for our future, what's happening this week, and to discover other organic w**e producers here in NZ.

Celebrate Organic W**e Week with 15% off all w**es online using code OWW, or save 20% automatically on our favourites 6-pack including the unreleased 2024 Syrah, new 2025 Pinot Gris, and library release 2018 Pinot Noir.

Due to popular demand, we've added a second night! Our first date sold out fast, so we're opening up Friday 9th October as well, giving a few more of you the chance to join us at the Greystone Restaurant for a special evening of delicious food, excellent company, and plenty of excellent w**e with our Head W**emaker.

For the very first time since stepping into her role as Head W**emaker, Georgia Mehlhopt is hosting her first Meet the W**emaker dinners at Greystone. She can't wait to raise a glass with you, and share the w**emaking process and vintage insights.

Executive Chef Cam Woodhouse has crafted a five-course menu plus canapés, paired with a handpicked selection of Greystone's finest pours. You'll be among the few to journey through our new releases, rare cellared older vintages, and a few of Georgia's personal favourites. Every dish, every pour, and every story is included in your ticket.

The evening is a wonderful opportunity for me to introduce myself as the new Head W**emaker for Greystone. I took on the position this year and am looking forward to sharing some stories and vintage insights with you. I am especially wanting to meet the people who have been such a part of supporting the Greystone journey and to say thank you.

Cam Woodhouse, our Executive Chef, will be pairing canapés and five food courses from the Greystone Kitchen with a selection of Greystone w**es. We’ll try both new release w**es and older vintages, and some personal favourites of my own. Dinner and all w**e matches are included in your ticket, so the evening can be focused on letting the good times (and w**e) flow.

I’d love to see you there and cheers over a glass of w**e.

Happy Pinot Noir Day! 🍷

Cheers to the grape that started it all! Here at Greystone, Pinot Noir has been the heart and soul of our estate since day one.

Join us all week as our Cellar Door pours a selection of our Pinots. This weekend (22nd–23rd August), step into the Tasting Lounge for a full lineup of Library Release Pinots, a rare chance to try before you buy.

Pair it with a vineyard lunch at the restaurant and a glass of Pinot with views out over the vines. It's the perfect excuse for a scenic drive out to Waipara, less than an hour from Christchurch!

We've also put together special Cellar Door packs you won't find online, plus a selection available on the website.
