JULES TAYLOR
LUNCH
Jules Taylor has always done things her way - even as
far back as the late 1980s, when she was head girl at
Marlborough Girls’ College, her way and the school’s
way seem to have been drawn on two very di erent
maps. Today, her own wine label ‘Jules Taylor’ is no
exception. Jules is passionate about the avours, the
consistent fruit quality found in Marlborough and
creating unique wines from these grapes. 2001 was
the rst release under the Jules Taylor label. Hand
picked grapes from single vineyard sites were selected
to produce small quantities of Riesling and Pinot Gris.
Since then, the portfolio has been expanded to include
Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay & Pinot Noir. As Jules
always says - all her wines are best enjoyed with great
food and good friends. Our favourite saying of hers is
“at my place it’s always wine O’clock” and we couldn’t
agree more so as the clock ticks join us for an afternoon
of her nest.
Join us for a 5 course lunch, 6 glasses of superb wine,
claybird shooting and golf. Return coach transfers
are provided $195.00 pp incl gst.
