Two great tastemakers Brown Brothers and Luna Bakehouse, have collaborated to create a delightfully delicious High Tea experience launch of Brown Brothers Limited Edition Moscato Strawberries & Cream.
The latest addition to the Moscato range, Brown Brothers Limited Edition Moscato Strawberries & Cream is a light and refreshing wine inspired by the taste of summer, combining Brown Brother’s best-selling Moscato with the flavours of sun-ripened strawberries, jam, and vanilla cream.
This luscious and vibrant limited-edition wine is naturally lower in alcohol (8.0 percent), making it ideal for the summer months. It can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a variety of foods, including desserts.
Using Brown Brothers Limited Edition Moscato Strawberries & Cream as its inspiration, the team at Luna Bakehouse has created a fun and flavourful Summer Indulgence High Tea experience that evokes the essence of summer, featuring a bespoke selection of sweet and savoury treats that have been carefully created to pair beautifully with Brown Brothers Limited Edition Moscato Strawberries & Cream

Emma Brown, fourth generation Brown family member, said this has been in the making for some time.
"After the successful launch of Brown Brothers Limited Edition Moscato Strawberries & Cream in Australia, we wanted to bring this exciting wine to Aotearoa, to give New Zealanders the opportunity to enjoy this light and refreshing wine alongside the delectable delights that Luna Bakehouse has created. This Summer Indulgence High Tea experience is the perfect way to showcase the fabulous fusion of flavours that have been created during this exciting collaboration.”

“We embrace creativity in pastry-making, and are always looking to continuously push the boundaries of flavours, textures, and presentation, which is one of the reasons that we were so excited to collaborate with Brown Brothers, who are also renowned for innovation.
