Billy Apple® celebrates his 50th anniversary with Waiheke winemakers

This year marks 50 years of the Billy Apple® brand and as part of the celebrations Apple has worked with Waiheke winemakers to produce Billy Apple®: Official Selection; premium red wines from the classic 2010 vintage in a limited edition case. The wines are from Kennedy Point, Man O'War, Miro, Obsidian, Peacock Sky and Poderi Crisci.

Billy Apple®: Official Selection is showing at the Waiheke Community Art Gallery to 15 October. The exhibition includes a survey of Apple's earlier wine works and is accompanied by a publication with a short essay by art critic and Waiheke resident Anthony Byrt.
