Having just returned from a visit to New Zealand, Wine Diva Daenna Van Mulligen is eager to share her discoveries about the country and its wines. The reviewer behind www.winescores.ca and www.winediva.ca will take guests on a virtual tour through several of New Zealand’s winegrowing regions, exploring the country’s amazing diversity of both climate and geography. This diversity enables winemakers to produce an unrivalled range of high-quality wines: renowned for Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir, New Zealand also produces top-notch reds as well as excellent sparkling wines. Guests will enjoy sampling some of Van Mulligen’s favourite picks from her recent expedition. Proudly sponsored by New Zealand Winegrowers.
