Pinot Junction Wine Store and Cafe owner Kate Barnett delivers treats to Yasmin de Paula Ferreira Zattar, in Cromwell, on her 30th birthday while Yasmin's partner Filipe Schmalz looks on.Yasmin's sister Luana contacted Mrs Barnett from her home in Brazil to see if she would deliver the cafe's celebrated cinnamon scrolls to her travelling sister.While the cafe did not usually do deliveries, it was not every day they had an order from Brazil and she was happy to make an exception, Mrs Barnett said.The couple were visiting family and friends in New Zealand. Mr Schmalz attended Wakatipu High School in 2009 as an exchange student and had returned several times to visit his host family.

New Faces in Old Cromwell
This service came about after friends of ours moved into a new house - busy times and they wanted some Central Otago wines to fill their cupboards, without the time to go to each winery & buy for themselves - here's what a couple of clients are saying:
"Kate provided us with a fantatsic selection of wines - some labels we knew & loved, some we had never heard of but are now firm favourites. So easy, fast delivery & now we are enjoying our new house, stocked full of wines!" Bridgette Allcock.
"WOW! I asked Kate for 10 cases of mixed Central Otago wines for our holiday house in Queenstown - brilliant! Great assortment, excellent prices & the perfect mix of premium & more accessable wines. We now have everything we need for the Festive Season" Malcolm Reister.
