        Auckland Wine Week is a new initiative encouraging people to ‘Embrace Local’ and celebrate the amazing winery scene we have on our doorstep.

        Events and promotions run from 13 - 23 June in the city and at participating wineries. Auckland Wine Week is a celebration of place and people as much as it is a delicious wine tasting adventure.
