The Hotel Britomart’s Winemaker in Residence series is back, offering two exclusive opportunities to experience the organic artistry of Fromm Winery. Hosted by fine wine storyteller David Nash, these two informative events showcase the essence of Marlborough winemaking — where Old World philosophy meets New Zealand’s unique terroir. Whether you prefer an intimate tasting or a curated degustation, both evenings promise exceptional wines, insightful storytelling, and inspired food pairings from the hotel’s culinary minds.
A Laid-Back Tasting in The Courtyard
On Wednesday, 12th February, Fromm’s winemaker Stephan Walliser joins David Nash and Kingi head chef Stefania Palermo for a relaxed evening of discovery. Set in the central courtyard, this free-flowing tasting experience is perfectly paired with a selection of Kingi’s signature canapés. Expect bright, varietal expressions of Fromm’s organic wines, from the crisp Sauvignon Blanc 2024 to the structured Pinot Noir 2023 and a rare Riesling Spätlese 2024. It’s a casual yet elevated affair, for $75 per person.
