Art and wine from Central Otago

Posted by Joelle Thomson on

Join the Regional Wine & Spirits team and Simon Lemaire from Nockie’s Palette winery on Saturday 6 May from 1pm to 4pm to taste a delicious trio of wines from an innovative Central Otago brand. 

"Nockie’s Palette Wines was created with a vision to combine Michael Nock’s love of wine with his passion for art," says Lemaire, who flies up from Central for the day to host this interesting in store tasting of these superb wines - with their drop dead gorgeous artwork.

Nockie’s Palette is associated with the NockArt Foundation which sponsors artist residency programmes in Central Otago. The designers of Nockie’s Palette wines use original artworks on the wine labels. 

"Just as the artist has a palette of paints and colours, Nockie’s Palette offers a palette of handcrafted wines showcasing unique hues, textures, flavours and terroir - the taste of the land, the site's aspect to the sun, the wind and other weather factors."

The Nockie's Palette cellar door is situated at Lake Hayes in Central Otago set in an English country style garden. Wine and art retreats are held at the cellar door as well as wine tasting
