The Cult Wine Advent Calendar is back for 2026 by popular demand!

This is the 9th year the Cult Wine have offered their famed Wine Advent Calendar which features 24 different 375ml bottles, one a day between the first of December and the final bottle, a half bottle of Grower Champagne to celebrate Christmas Eve! 

The 24 wines are sourced from top New Zealand producers like Ata Rangi, Greywacke and Peregrine and iconic international wine styles like Barossa Shiraz, Beaujolais, Chablis and Bordeaux. For those looking for something a little more exciting there are also a couple of wildcards including Méthode Cider and a Grape Ale from Karamu Barrelworks, 2026 Champion Brewery at the NZ Brewers Guild Awards. These have been hand selected by our Wine Director Carlene Wilson and Known Unknown winemaker Jules van Costello. 

The Cult Wine Advent Calendar is an amazing gift for yourself or the wine lover in your life. What could be better than waking up each morning (or coming home from work to open) a hand-wrapped half bottle of wine from an iconic producer or international region. 

The Cult Wine Advent Calendar has sold out every year and this year they are highly limited. They are available to pre-order and will be dispatched from the middle of November to make sure they arrive in time for 1 December. Likewise, our last orders for the Cult Wine Advent Calendar will be midday Monday 23 November to allow time for delivery. 

Here's what people have said about our previous calendars:
"The Cult Wine advent calendar was great. I found the selection varied well, from NZ classics through to harder to find wines which I had not tried before. The champagne was a festive touch. All the wines included drunk well and some had good bottle age." Sam

"A fun and very adult twist on an advent calendar. I particularly enjoyed the half bottle size of the wines, we saved a few of them as they are also great for summer picnics and traveling but unwrapping a new wine each day was heaps of fun! Definitely a good way to broaden your wine-horizons as we found some new favorites!" Kelli

Each Cult Wine Advent Calendar includes 24x 375ml bottles including one bottle of Grower Champagne, one bottle of Karamu Barrelworks Grape Ale and one bottle of Méthode Cider from a highly regarded producer and are packaged in an Advent Calendar style gift box.
