It's gotten cold in Wānaka, and what began as a need for storage space here at Pembroke Wines & Spirits has transformed into a well-designed area called The Cave, where we can welcome locals this winter.
Cosy and intimate, The Cave is perfect for private tasting room experiences, special events, staff parties, birthday celebrations, or family gatherings. If you're familiar with Nadia and her exquisite taste in interior design, you can be sure this place is amazing.
Join us in Wānaka's only Cave, opening on May 31st from 4 pm onwards. Come and celebrate with us—enjoy free nibbles and lots of laughter. We'll also debut our signature cocktail, "The Cave", on the opening night. Drift Winter Gin will be our signature gin at Pembroke Wines this winter.
If you're interested in booking The Cave for your next event, please reach out to Nadia.

New on our food menu
New on the Pembroke menu: Our Loaded Hummus. This creamy, rich hummus is generously topped with an assortment of pickles, capers, olives, and mixed nuts.
Each bite offers a delightful contrast of textures and flavours, from the tangy crunch of the pickles and capers to the savoury richness of the olives and the satisfying crunch of the nuts. It's a perfect appetizer.
Another new addition to the menu: White Truffle Camembert Fondue. This luxurious dish features creamy Camembert cheese melted to perfection and infused with the earthy aroma of white truffle.
Drizzled with golden award-winning Branch Creek Honey and garnished with a medley of mixed nuts, this fondue offers a sublime combination of sweet, savoury, and nutty flavours. Ideal for sharing simply invites to dip, savour, and enjoy.
