This Mother's Day, we've joined hands with The Good Cake to bundle the perfect treat for mum: yes, wine and cake!
Wine Please! is so very thrilled to partner with this little bakery that does good: The Good Cake donates a part of their proceeds to buying rice for the elderly living in poverty here in Hong Kong! We have so much love and respect for the incredible work they do, and are so pleased to come together for the cause.
In support, Wine Please will match The Good Cake's rice donation from this exciting Mother's Day collab. As our friends at The Good Cake say, more rice = less hunger, may we leave no grandparent behind!
These delicious duos of a lush homemade cake and a fabulous bottle of wine are available all throughout May, and you will receive a 10% discount at checkout! Bundles start from HK$715, with two cakes and three wines to choose from!

Woodstock Mary McTaggert Riesling 2020 | HK$210
