When it comes to wine, it's tough to break old habits: Most of us find a few bottles we like and stick to them with admirable fidelity.
And anyone who's had a glass of New Zealand's exceptional Sauvignon Blanc (the varietal that put it on the wine world's map) can see why it's so popular. Few people venture past these Marlborough-made beauties when looking to the country's wine.
But allowing partiality to limit your drinking choices would be a bad move: New Zealand's regional diversity and range of growing climates make it ideal for producing many other varietals, including Pinot Noir, Riesling and Gewürztraminer.
To help you expand your horizons, Tasting Table has teamed up with three of the city's top wine stores to create the ultimate Kiwi wine walking tour.
On Saturday, September 12, head to Union Square Wines, Astor Wines & Spirits and IS-Wine between 4 and 7 p.m. These stores--all within easy walking distance of each other--will be pouring a wide array of New Zealand's best, for you and your discerning palate to consider.
And you can continue the tour by following New Zealand Wine on twitter by clicking here.
Who knows: Maybe you'll find your next big favorite.
