Harcourts Four Seasons is a major event sponsor. “It’s wonderful we can support this event, showcasing the North Canterbury Wine Region and the fantastic wines from our region, and the fact that the Rural Support Trust will also benefit provides great satisfaction,” says principal officer James Twiss.
