Discover the beauty and breadth of Godzone’s best produce. From foaming sea to snow peaked mountains, local wines meet regional Kiwi cuisine. Master of Wine and Kumeu River Winemaker, Michael Brajkovich, will host this one-off event at The Lula Inn.
This intimate 5 course winemaker’s dinner with matching wines will marry Head Chef Sam Clark’s regional cuisine to the wines of our closest winemaking neighbours, Kumeu River. Don’t miss this inaugural dining event at The Lula Inn, our own South Pacific eatery on the historic Princes Wharf in downtown Auckland.
