To mark Hawke’s Bay’s inclusion as a Great Wine Capital, and following on from 2024’s Adelaide focus, the wines of Mendoza will be celebrated… with a little help from some friends.
Join chef Corrandino Anselmi (El Sizzling Chorizo, Auckland) and Florencia Menehem (Baked, Central Fire Station Bistro) who’ll bring an authentic taste of Mendoza to Hawke's Bay using fresh local produce. Over three courses, preceded by appetisers and sparkling wine on arrival, you’ll explore the inspiration, ingredients and techniques of Argentinian cooking, with Simon Nash MW on hand to select fine wines from Mendoza and talk through the hallmarks of top drops from this important wine producing region.
F.A.W.C! Food and Wine Classic is a series of exceptional food and wine experiences set in stunning locations in Hawke’s Bay. Running from March 14-23, F.A.W.C! is a chance to get up close and personal with chefs and food producers, wine makers and the clever people that make up the New Zealand food and wine scene.
