Blanc de Blanc Launch Alexia Greytown this Saturday!
Exciting times at Alexia Urban Winery as they release their first Alexia Méthode Traditionelle Blanc de Blancs. Hand-picked, hand-made, hand bottled, hand riddled, and hand disgorged, all right in Greytown. This means Alexia have joined the very small handful of NZ Methode Traditionnelle producers who do it all 100% in house.
To mark the occasion they have a couple of very special guests joining them for their launch this Saturday. Martin Bosley will be slinging the oysters from his oyster saloon, and the team from Vixen Burger will be firing up the grills to turn out some of their famous burgers. ((No bookings required and no dogs allowed)). 🍾🥂
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
