New Zealand Wine Guide (2nd Ed)
“The evolution of New Zealand as a vine-growing, wine producing country is also a story of the New Zealand Dream; of inspired entrepreneurs, captivated by the aromas, flavours and sociability of wine’, says Celia Hay, author of the New Zealand Wine Guide (2nd Ed).

“Looking back to the 1990s, we can observe the remarkable transformation of our fledgling wine and hospitality communities into professional, well-run businesses”, says Hay.
“The stories behind the regions and the wineries; winemakers, grape-growers and visionaries give a real depth to New Zealand’s wine identity and this knowledge needs to be shared broadly and celebrated widely”.
