Principal Sponsor

WineWork’s contributions, time and support to The Hawke’s Bay Wine Auction is greatly appreciated. We thank them for giving back to our community by helping to bring comfort to those in palliative care in Hawke’s Bay. WineWorks began in 1995 to provide key bottling infrastructure for wineries. In the 20+ years since we’ve grown with our winery customers, to ensure we have adequate capacity for the New Zealand wine industry.
