MATTHEW FOX BECOMES NEWEST COLLECTOR OF DESTINY BAY WINE

Mas acerca de la visita de Foxy a los viñedos Destiny Bay. Matt hizo un espacio en su apretada agenda para conocer los viñedos que producen el vino que probó en The Grove Restaurant en Auckland junto con su esposa Margherita:

"Estos vinos son increíbles" "Margherita y yo provamos el Destiny Bay Magna Praemia en The Gove Restaurant en Auckland, y este nos sorprendió" Agregó Fox. "Cuando regresamos por una cena a The Grove pocos días despues y probamos su Destinae blend, yo decidí que tenía que aprender mas acerca de como estos vinos eran hechos."

Margherita tuvo que retornar a New York por un previo compromiso, pero Matt decidió viajar por si solo a la isla Waiheke a los viñedos Destiny Bay e irónicamente se perdió. Por suerte no estaba tan lejos y llegó bien a destino.

Después de un tour en los viñedos y el la bodega, se pusieron en el serio negocio de la degustación de vinos añejos desde el 2007, 2008 y 2010. Foxy dijo:

"Despues de haber pasado un tiempo aqui viendo lo que Sean, Ann, Mike, Brett y el resto de su equipo hacen, ahora entiendo por qué estos vinos son tan buenos" "Casi no puedo esperar para obtener mi asiganción anual."

Según la opinion de los dueños del viñedo "Matt tiene un paladar exigente y entiende lo que estamos tratando de lograr" "Matt se crió en una granja y valora el nivel de pasión y compromiso que se necesita para crear algo especial que viene de la tierra." "Todos nuestros seguidores son muy importantes para nosotros y estamos muy contentos de dar la bienvenida a Matthew y Margherita, como nuestros nuevos Socios Protectores del Club."

Matthew Fox with the Founders and Winemaker of Destiny Bay Vineyards

These wines are amazing...I had to learn more about how these wines were made

Waiheke Island, New Zealand (PRWEB) March 14, 2012

Destiny Bay Vineyards announced today that Matthew Fox, who starred in Lost, Party of Five and the upcoming film The Emperor, took time out of a hectic filming schedule to visit the vineyard and winery last weekend. Stating “these wines are amazing,” Mr. Fox has joined the ranks of Destiny Bay’s Patron Club members who collect its single vineyard artisan wines.

“Margherita and I tried the Destiny Bay Magna Praemia at The Grove Restaurant in Auckland, and it blew us away,” stated Fox. “When we went back for dinner at The Grove a few days later and tried their Destinae blend, I decided I had to learn more about how these wines were made.”

Fox’s wife Margherita returned to New York for a prior commitment, but he decided to journey on his own to Waiheke Island and Destiny Bay Vineyards … and promptly got lost. “It was pretty ironic actually”, stated Sean Spratt, winemaker and owner of Destiny Bay Vineyards. “We were expecting Matthew and his assistant and we were starting to wonder what might have happened. Then the phone rang and his assistant said they were lost. Turns out they were only a few hundred meters away so there was no real drama.”

Fox was in Auckland to complete principle filming of The Emperor. A casual day on Waiheke Island tasting Destiny Bay wines was a relaxing break from the hectic schedule he keeps. After a tour of the vineyard and winery, they got down to the serious business of tasting wine from the 2007, 2008, and 2010 vintages. “Having spent time here seeing what Sean, Ann, Mike, Brett and the rest of their team do, I now understand why these wines are so good,” stated Fox. “I can hardly wait to get my annual allocation.”

“Matthew has a discriminating palate and understands what we are trying to accomplish,” stated Ann Spratt, co-founder and wine scientist. “Our team works very hard to make elegant and expressive wines and we are delighted when enthusiasts like Matthew and Margherita enjoy the results of our effort.” Mike Spratt, co-founder, added, “Matthew grew up on a farm and appreciates the level of passion and commitment it takes to create something special that comes from the earth.”

“Even if somebody gets lost trying to get here we’re prepared to send out a rescue party to find them,” said Brett Taylor, co-owner and Director of Global Distribution. “All of our supporters are very important to us and we are pleased to welcome Matthew and Margherita as our newest Patron Club members.”
