For over a decade we have been working with leading local and international chefs to present events with cutting edge cuisine, incredible flavours and inspiring stories. Here are some pics from last year's event at Cassia Auckland.

We had the pleasure of working with Chef Nelly Robinson to present two nights of his acclaimed dishes in a collaboration with Auckland legendary chef Sid Sahrawat. Pictured are dishes such as a tomato salad in marshmallow form and topped with caviar, cold-smoked salmon with pistachio and a verjus and chilli sorbet and a surprise and delight dessert featuring Agria potato, spiced mead, and pineapple.

The creative thought and disciplined ex*****on of these dishes is what makes them so much more than just food. Each dish represents a journey and one that we were very happy to be a small part of. What dining experience do you want to see next?

Every Wine Tells A Story. Ever wonder how that wine came to be? We do this all the time and so in partnership with CCL Label (they print a large
number of the really cool labels you see on our wine bottles), we reproduced the artworks in large format then dug deep into the meaning behind the designs. With such a small canvas to work with, no label features anything by accident.

For example each ring of the cut vine on this Le Grā design represents a year of the youngest of the Geary family member who is growing up on the vineyard. Le Grā - celtic for "with love" reflects the way the owners approach everything on the vineyard and what it means for their family.

What's your favourite wine label and why?

🎊Nau mai, haere mai to WiredScore in Aotearoa. Congratulations to the WiredScore NZ launch and the partners who have joined onboard WiredScore's network.

Our team had the privilege of hosting the WiredScore APAC team and key players from the New Zealand real estate, building, landlords, tech, and property services industry. It was a fantastic platform for collaboration and ideas exchange, fostering connections that will undoubtedly shape the future of the industry. This intimate event took place in The Lounge at Stanbeth & Excelsior - The Generator, a building filled with character, providing the perfect backdrop for an evening of innovation and networking.

The launch also coincides with the growth of the NZ market, which signifies great potential and sets the stage for more exciting developments down the line. We're looking forward to it as WiredScore continues to make waves in the dynamic landscape of engineering, technology and real estate.

Heartfelt thanks to the WiredScore APAC team - Samantha, Tommy, Ed, Jun and Edward - for trusting the Lemongrass team and working with us to deliver this event.
