A wonderful evening welcoming Gareth Bolesworth as Noble Rot’s new Head Chef.

From his take on fish and chips to Ōhāriu Valley lamb and sticky toffee pudding, Gareth’s menu brought personal memories to the table through thoughtful cooking, beautifully complemented by the w**es.

Thank you to everyone who joined us—full tables, happy guests and a memorable beginning to our next culinary chapter. 🥂

Three w**es. Three regions. Three expressions of skin contact.

Skin-contact w**es are made by fermenting white grapes with their skins, adding colour, texture, complexity and sometimes a gentle tannic grip.

🇳🇿 Cambridge Road ‘Cloudwalker’ – Martinborough
A Pinot Gris-led blend with Riesling and Pinot Noir. Aromatic, vibrant and textured, with stone fruit, citrus and delicate spice.

🇫🇷 Bonnet-Huteau ‘Bonnet Orange’ – Loire Valley
Biodynamic Pinot Gris with extended skin contact. Fresh and expressive, showing orange peel, orchard fruit and subtle tannins.

🇪🇸 Mas Martinet ‘Pesseroles Brisat’ – Priorat
A fascinating blend of Picapoll Blanc, Pedro Ximénez and Garnatxa Blanca. Deeply textured, savoury and complex, with remarkable structure.

Available by the glass at Noble Rot, or served blind as a **eoji tasting flight.

Engage. Educate. Enjoy. 🥂
