Designed as the indispensable ‘must-have’ guide to affordable wines available in New Zealand, it will once again be crammed with useful information to help price-conscious consumers choose the best value wine. Local and international wines will be tested by Joëlle, to give a comprehensive overview of the new vintage along with the highlights of the vintage year, wine news and developments and tips on the storage and serving of wines.
