An afternoon at the Eight At The Gate Wrattonbully with Naina and some of the Eight at the Gate crew.
Naina is a blogger and photographer and spent a few days with us in the vineyard at Eight at the Gate Wrattonbully. She even makes our spray cart look good! 🤣 From Jane and Naina meeting in India 5 years ago to us now having our wines for sale in India. One of those full circle moments and whilst it would be fabulous to get to hang out with Naina again in Delhi, we got to host her in vineyard instead. India is a very exciting new market for us. It is vibrant and young and we cannot wait to share more stories about our visits and the people we meet there.
An excerpt from her blog below
Five years ago, in February 2020, Jane and I met at the Australian Embassy in New Delhi where she had flown, all the way from Australia, to showcase Eight At The Gate wines to an Indian audience. I had been invited by the Embassy to taste Australian wines, and, hopefully, talk about them and introduce them to my audience. Despite it being our first time meeting, Jane and I got along like long-lost friends. Even after the wine-tasting evening, we stayed in touch via social media platforms and would message each other on and off.
We are both quite pleased that five years later, now, in February 2025, we hung out together at the vineyard in the Wrattonbully Wine Region in South Australia! Who knew! It’s been an incredible experience for me. It feels like the entire Eight At The Gate family has adopted me and I couldn’t be more grateful.
