Wine for the People

Overview

People, purists or just the curious, take your palate for a ride without fear or judgement as the team from much-loved Wellington institutions Hillside Kitchen & Cellar and Cult Wine bring their passion for all things ingestible to Karangahape Road's Lovebucket for two nights only.

Fueled by talent and a passion for conscious dining, owners Asher and Jules make good food a priority. Focusing on flavours that not only sing in the mouth, but leave an impression long after you've left the dinner table, if there was ever a time to ditch the dairy...May 7 and 8 are it.

Serving an exceptional menu of vegan/vegetarian cuisine and natural wine for two nights only, the boys invite patrons to enjoy their very special take on what dining out is all about: enjoying yourself, feeling good and learning something new.

Wine novices fear not (those who quiver at the question of when to swill versus when to smell?) there's no added anxiety for natural wine, it's the same concept, simply made organically and minus the additives. And while veganism and thoughts of artisan wine might seem reserved for members of an exclusive club, this is your invitation to the best 101 class in town.
