About North Shore Wine & Food SocietyThe North Shore Wine and Food Society is a club of people who love wine and appreciate the opportunity to taste and learn more about them. We are based in North Shore City, Auckland, New Zealand and have been meeting for over 18 years. We meet monthly and have a guest presenter with usually about 8 wines to taste and discuss and afterwards purchase if we wish to, followed by a meal and the opportunity to socialise. Our monthly meetings are catered events, and as such we require numbers by the Friday before the meeting. We also encourage people to become subscribing members after attending a couple of meetings as guests. From mid 2006 the club night venue is Fairway Lodge, adjacent to the North Shore Events Centre and the golf course. Enter via Argus Place, off Sunnybrae Road, Glenfield. Click here for map. The club meets there on the 2nd Tuesday of each month unless the function is being held in a restaurant. Bookings are essential. Members provide their own XL5 tasting glasses - these are available for purchase from the club. Glasses can be provided for visitors. In addition to our regular meeting, we also have other events and two celebratory meals during the year ( 1 mid-winter and the other a Christmas party) as well as wine tasting tours and special tasting events. If you live in or near the North Shore in Auckland, NZ, we’d love you to join our club. Please refer to the HOME page for upcoming events. Other details are available to club members through our monthly newsletter, or feel free to contact us! The club's logo represents wine and food and inside the glass is a symbol of the North Shore and Auckland - "Rangitoto" - the volcanic island and icon in the Hauraki Gulf. President: David Corlett. |
