We’re back.
If I’m honest, the thought of posting on here has been a struggle of late. It felt trivial and insignificant following the sobering days we’ve experienced here in New Zealand. But with this unfiltered, morning pic, we’re back. Gently. ... See MoreSee Less

Love.

Weekend warriors.
Well, I guess that's us for the weekend. Hand-labeling bottles of Hawke's Bay Fiano, he said. What you up to...?! ... See MoreSee Less

New blood.
Here's Lewis. He's Scottish and has been in hospo since Robert the Bruce was in short shorts. He likes to ride motorbikes - here he is off to open the Cellar Door gate and put the 'open' sign out - and loves rolling the sleeves up on his brand new Drinkers+Keepers tee. If you're heading our way in the next while or so, say 'hi' to Lewis. He'd like that. ... See MoreSee Less

Monday Meh?
Blast away your Monday-itis with a little Loma love...cake! With Loma in the TA house, we never feel that Monday meh! ... See MoreSee Less

💥 Thanks for all the lovely entries!! And a big Congrats to Pauline from our FB post - and to B Porter on our Instagram feed....get training ladies! 💥

Did ya'll know that the Hawkes Bay Marathon has a new finish line at our superstar neighbour's place, Elephant Hill? Well, that is, in fact, a true story.

And since our property is being used for a traffic bypass that day, we've been gifted two entries from the lovely organisers. And, although it was a hard decision not to run (!??!!), we thought we'd offer them to ya'll our wine-loving friends as you know, wine and running go hand in hand...but obviously not at the same time!

So if you'd like to be in the running (see what I did there) for an entry of your choice to the May event - AND we'll also throw in a bottle of wine for your finish line celebrations - here's what you need to do:

1. Tag a friend down below who may also be interested.
2. You can enter multiple times, but you must tag someone different each time.
3. Share this post.
4. Absolutely be 18+ before you enter.
5. Cross your fingers...!

Winners will be drawn on Friday 8 March at midday. Two separate names will be picked at random from all entries received through our FB and IG pages. Winners get to pick which course they'd like to tackle 42km, 21km, 10km or 3km. Full HB Marathon deets here hawkesbaymarathon.co.nz ... See MoreSee Less

Free pencil.
Yep, we’re pushing the boat out! When you sign up to our new, soon-to-be-launched wine club, you’ll get a brand new, already sharpened, rubber included, bespoke pencil for all your doodling and note-taking, vinous related or otherwise. Boom! ... See MoreSee Less

It’s not Monday.
Amen to that. Lit a fire at 9 o’clock yesterday morning...so, looking like this, Tuesday’s turned out to be a much better proposition already!
