Midlands Hawke’s Bay Charity Wine Auction

New Zealand’s Oldest Wine Auction 6th June  2010  Tom McDonald Cellar, Church Road Winery   Each year skilled winemakers craft unique lots exclusively for the Midland’s Hawke’s Bay Charity Wine Auction. These fine Hawke’s Bay wines imbued with the generosity and spirit of their creators reflect the success of the event which over the past fifteen years has raised well in excess of a million dollars for Hawke’s Bay’s Cranford Hospice.

"Each year I wonder if the Auction wines could get any better? Yet they do...At each pre-auction tasting I'm usually quite methodical. But this year I couldn't help myself, jumping from one amazing wine to another like a child at a lolly scramble. I firmly believe any wine enthusiast, any wine collector, any wine judge, commentator or taster from any part of the world would be suitably stunned by the quality of the 2008 Auction lots." 

Yvonne Lorkin, Wine Writer

“This important event not only raises much needed funds for Cranford Hospice but also shows off the sheer diversity and quality of Hawke’s Bay wines, not to mention the generosity of all those involved.” said 2008 guest auctioneer Andrew Caillard MW from Australia’s Langton’s Fine Wine Auctions.
