Details:

THE Wooing Tree – The Wooing Tree is a local landmark that sits prominently in the middle of the family vineyard. It has long been a place for locals to woo their lovers, and if it could talk, would have many a story to tell! These days it is not quite the private spot it once was…but we still have plenty of visitors proposing marriage and even getting married under our beautiful iconic tree, amidst the vines. Central Otago enjoys a perfect climate for producing beguiling Pinot Noir. Our single vineyard site is located in the very heart of the region, in the town of Cromwell, opposite the ‘Big Fruit Sculpture’. Come and visit! You’ll discover why we specialise in making Pinot with Passion…

Members may remember that we tried the 2011 Wooing Tree Beetle Juice in April 2013. As a result of that contact, Wooing Tree have kindly offered to present to the club. Steve is an owner at Wooing Tree and has joined us from the UK to become part of the NZ wine industry.

It will be interesting to hear his views. The wines will include:

  • Quaffer – Wooing Tree Blondie, 2013
  • Wooing Tree Rose 2013
  • Wooing Tree Chardonnay 2012
  • Wooing Tree Beetle Juice 2013
  • Wooing Tree Pinot Noir 2010
  • Wooing Sandstorm Reserve 2009
  • Wooing Tree Tickled Pink 2012

Looking forward to yet another great presentation from Central Otago.
