Kemp Road Taonga 2023

$45.00 inc. GST

Created to celebrate diverse small-production vineyards around New Zealand, the Kemp Road series brings together great artisan winegrowers, whānau, history and the work of a professional artist in one beautiful package. Kemp Road wines are produced in close collaboration with the best artisan winemakers of New Zealand as one-off special edition releases of their favourite wines.

“Taonga” is the te reo Māori word for “Treasure” or “Wealth” — referring to the wealth of the land our artisan winemakers are bestowed with to craft the greatest, most bountiful of wines.
