Launching this weekend at Melton Estate is Mulled Wine. Our mulled wine (or vin chaud as the French say) uses Melton Estate Syrah as the wine base plus Nasta's secret spice mix and garnish.

The photo shows the mulled wine paired with our popular baked camembert - topped with honey and served with caramelised onions, orange and date crostini.

This weekend is a great time to visit for a mulled wine and a warm welcome.

Join us in raising a glass to Pinot Gris Day.

New Zealand Pinot Gris is fresh and full-flavoured, with notes of apple, pear, honeysuckle, spice and bread. The cooler South Island produces tighter wines with great structure, and persistence with a focus on pristine, pure aromatics and flavours of white peach, red apple skin and cinnamon.
