Without a winery or vineyard to tour, the Smith & Sheth Village Oenothèque offers a point of difference through their innovative response to the challenge identified, and the experience delivered by their knowledgeable team. Smith and Sheth host a range of exceptional wine experiences suitable for the casual taster through to the avid wine enthusiast, including the Monthly Table for Eight Tastings – a tasting journey exploring carefully selected wine themes.
The Oenothèque is more than a cellar door. And it is more than a bottle shop. The wine offerings and experiences curated here become a portal through which guests are taken on a journey, an exploration of New Zealand’s most exceptional wine regions. The Smith & Sheth Oenothèque is also a dynamic Wine Lounge and a live music venue on Wednesday evenings year-round with a following of local residents and visitors.
