Roadtrips and wineries are the ideal pair on an apparently unending late spring day. Indeed, relaxing while you are playing patio cricket has its charms. Yet, there's something to be said about taking off, exploring your surroundings, growing your tastebuds, and bringing another jug of wine home to air out and to watch the sunset. Fortunately for us, New Zealand has spoilt with a bunch of wineries in and around within road-tripping distance. In this way, regardless of whether you're after a glimmering chardonnay, a la mode syrah or vigorous Cabernet from either a time-tested grape plantation or a best-in-class store, a Wine Tour in New Zealand, around these wineries will sort you directly out.
KUMEU RIVER WINES
Kumeu River Wines currently sets the benchmark for non-Burgundy produced chardonnay around the world. Given that it produces 250,000 containers of the stuff every year, they are knowledgeable in its creation and reliably win honors both here and abroad. From light and fresh to rich and strong, Kumeu River Winery in Auckland delivers a chardonnay for everybody.
WAIHEKE
OK, it's not actually an excursion, but rather an hour and a half ferry ride that can take you out of the rushing about of Auckland to Waiheke Island. With its white sandy seashores and rich creative/nonconformity history, Waiheke feels a world away from downtown Auckland.
Like Waiheke, Matakana has a warm, radiant atmosphere that produces rich red wines. A little however completely framed wine developing territory, Matakana gives wine darlings with grape plantations dabbed among the slopes and bays.
HERON'S FLIGHT
This is the lone vine plantation in New Zealand to practice exclusively in Italian vines. The winery was set up 31 years back by David Hoskins whose function as a scientist/rationalist/winemaker makes him a genuine renaissance man.
