Fluidity: The Art and Wine Pairing Event
Thursday 30 May | 6.30pm
Ever paired fine wine with fine art?
SO/ Auckland are shaking wine tastings up — pairing boutique wines to expressive, evocative art.
Taste five exquisite Alpha Domus wines—many of which are reserve, unique and lesser-known wines. With each sip, you’ll discover the Rachel Rush artwork it has been masterfully paired with, by Alpha Domus’ team.
Many of the artworks paired to the wines will be in Rachel Rush’s soon-to-launch Fluid collection. This tasting marks the first time they will be presented to the world!
Alpha Domus’ winemaker Barry Riwai from Hawke’s Bay will take you through the pairings and share some snippets and secrets of the boutique winemaking process. All senses will be artfully engaged in this unique tasting. Nibbles provided.
At SO/ Gallery, 57 Customs Street East, Auckland CBD
$25 per person. Book here.
