Description
Explore the beautiful scenery of West Auckland on the Quintessential Wine Tour, 4 gorgeous vineyards with tastings at 3 included in the price. Lunch and a glass of wine are included also at another stunning vineyard. This Tour takes you over the Auckland Harbour Bridge and then west past forests and beaches into the wine country of Auckland. West Auckland was the hub of New Zealand’s wine industry in the early 20th century, with many small vineyards owned by families of Croatian descent. These vineyards are still family-owned, with some now in their 5th generation, showing that winemaking truly runs in their blood.
Visit Westbrook Winery, one of New Zealand’s oldest and most respected boutique wineries. Then head to the Hunting Lodge for wine tasting and lunch. Next, enjoy a tour and tasting at Kumeu River, a world-renowned single-vineyard chardonnay by rock star winemaker Michael Brajkovich MW. Finally, head to Soljans Estate for wine tasting.
