The seven wines to be showcased as the New Zealand Parliament wine range have been selected.

“We’re excited our new Parliament wine range represents an array of wine regions which showcase the diversity and richness our country’s wine industry has to offer,” says Parliamentary Catering General Manager, Bryce Hughes.

The wines are:

  • 27seconds Pinot Gris – North Canterbury
  • Luna Estate Pinot Noir – Martinborough
  • Eva Pemper Sauvignon Blanc – Marlborough
  • Leveret Estate Reserve Chardonnay – Hawke’s Bay
  • Mills Reef Reserve Syrah – Gimblett Gravels – Hawke’s Bay
  • Mills Reef Reserve Merlot Malbec – Gimblett Gravels – Hawke’s Bay
  • Leveret IQ Brut – Hawke’s Bay

Later this year, the newly-labelled wines will be served as the house range at parliamentary events.

It will also be served in Parliament’s on-site licensed eateries – including Bellamys Restaurant – and available for purchase at the Parliament Gift Shop.

“We thank all the wineries who took part in this initiative, and we’re proud to be able to showcase a small section of this industry and the people behind it,” says Hughes.
