The Chardonnay Affair Weekend is a curated three-day celebration of wine, food, and the best of Gisborne.

Running from 22–24 May, the weekend features a collection of eight unique events set across some of the region’s most stunning locations — from long lunches among the trees, to coastal tastings, to relaxed evening experiences.

While Chardonnay is the hero, the weekend is designed to be welcoming and accessible, with a range of events to suit different tastes, budgets, and styles from premium hosted experiences through to more casual tastings.

During this event, visitors can look forward too:

  • Beautiful Gisborne locations and venues
  • A mix of premium and relaxed wine experiences
  • Local food, produce, and hospitality
  • Opportunities to meet winemakers and explore the region

Whether you’re a wine lover planning a weekend escape or simply looking for something special to do, The Chardonnay Affair offers a memorable way to experience Gisborne.
