Sunday Lunch

For a great gift idea, consider our 'Sunday Lunch' gift vouchers.

The vouchers are beautifully presented in a wooden box together with a bottle of Vin Alto wine.  You can add a personal message in the voucher, to thank a valuable employee or congratulate the recipient with a mile stone in their life.


 Travel only 35 minutes from central Auckland and feel a million miles away from home, to while away a pleasant Sunday afternoon at Vin Alto's Enoteca.  Relax between Enzo's extensive collection of antique glassware and winemaking equipment or in the intimate olive tree lined courtyard overlooking vineyards, herds of deer and views back to the city.  You will also be able to play Bocce -Italian version of Pétanque- on our new Bocce court.

       

Our autumn menu features Enzo's take on the Italian classic dish "vitello tonnato" - lean chilled veal with a tuna sauce- as well as ossobucco from Vin Alto reared venison.  Margaret has come up with a wonderful dessert of self saucing lemon pudding combined with honey and thyme semi freddo

Each of the dishes are carefully matched with a tasting of Vin Alto and Clevedon Hills wines and we are also featuring our own imported Proseccco from Case Bianche to go with dessert.  Wines and liqueurs are then available for purchase by the glass or bottle, along with Italian beer and juice.

The Sunday lunch is $ 95.00 per person. A children's lunch is available, consisting of the main course, followed by dessert and home made lemonade to drink for $ 45.00. We are able to accommodate special dietary requirements providing we have sufficient notice.

All our food is freshly prepared, so we do need to know how many guests to expect, a few days in advance.  For enquiries or reservations, please phone 09 292 8845 or enquire online.

Enoteca

The concept of an Enoteca dates back to Roman times when it was simply a country wine bar where local wines could be drunk and purchased. Also available were small plates of regional food or fresh produce from the farm prepared in the Enoteca kitchen by the family or wife of the host, very often using old family recipes and methods. The wine always remained at centre stage however, and the food was there to make them shine.
