Sip 'n' Savour - A Bogle Wine Dinner 15 Storeys Up
Join Harbour Society, Farro & Dhall & Nash for a journey to the sunny valleys of California, 15 floors above Auckland City with a wine dinner like no other at SO/ Auckland.
Enjoy a three-course dinner while you sip, swirl and savour handpicked wines by the Californian wine sensation - Bogle Family Vineyards. Jody Bogle - the sixth generation of the family working their land - will be joining via a live video feed to chat and answer any questions you may have about their wine, their history and their vineyards.
Bogle is a tried-and-true favourite in New Zealand, opening the eyes of many a kiwi to the delights of bold Caifornian Chardonnay, but this producer has more arrows in its quiver than just this liquid gold. Come along and try more from their impressive range (as well as their famous chardonnay!)
A table with sweeping views of Auckland city, fragrant food and delicious wine will set the scene among good company (and maybe even a few prizes).

Meet Mollydooker
If you haven't yet met Mollydooker, let us introduce you... A powerhouse in every sense of the word, Mollydooker has been a crowd-pleasing, wow-inducing, glass-filling favourite in the Dhall & Nash portfolio for years.
These unapologetically lush and vivacious wines are everything their quirky labels make them out to be – loud, bold and utterly scrumptious. With a look to turn the head and a taste to delight the tongue, there’s nothing this Aussie superstar can’t achieve.
What's with all the 'Left' references?
Mollydooker is Aussie' slang for a left-hander, which has been an oddly strong theme throughout this brand's entire journey. Both of the winemakers who started the label were Mollydookers, but it's more than that! You'll notice all Mollydooker staff will only shake your left hand, the Boxer Shiraz (their most popular bottling) has two left-handed gloves in his depiction, and is part of the 'Lefty' series. Wine critic Robert Parker helped to boost this brand to international recognition, which they found particularly poignant given he too is a left-hander and they've named their wine room after him: ‘Nosey Parker Experience.’ Mollydooker also employs an unusually high number of Mollydookers - despite only making up around 10% of the population, around 50% of their winery staff just so happen to be left-handed.
