“Tim and Rob brought some outstanding Sauvignon Blanc samples from their vineyards in New Zealand to taste. I’m particular about my wines, so their quality and origin are very important to me. Enjoying a chilled glass of our final delicious blend in the sun and overlooking the New York skyline was a memorable moment for me!”
