Akaroa, NZ – September 27, 2014 – Takamatua Valley Vineyards

Party goers at the official headquarters for the Global Party in London will revel through-out the month of September, raising their glasses in celebration of philanthropy across the globe.  Connecting over 360,000 VIP’s across the world for a worthy cause. As an official wine sponsor for the celebration, Akaroa Winery is honored to be the first New Zealand venue to host this prestigious affair.  www.theglobalparty.com

Akaroa Winery, nestled on the north facing slopes of the lush hills above the historical village, produces wines with great intensity and finesse. The rugged terroir of the volcanic soils comes through in our wines unique flavours. Certified organic, every aspect of the growing and planting are dedicated to sustainable farming techniques.  The wines resemble the more fruit dominant California wines which is no surprise as we are linked to the north coast of California in more ways than one.

Unfortunately, the devastating earthquake in September of 2010 damaged much of Akaroa and the winery itself and we are finally recovering, and what better way than to open the doors for a worthy cause to benefit our community.

Now the world can sample the flavour of Akaroa through the Takamatua Valley Vineyards wine club online at www.takamatuavalley.com.
