Karikari Estate

I recommend booking a wine tasting online in advance to snag a great spot. When I went, it was super busy and I had to wait, which totally ate into my tasting time.
Smith & Sheth

My advice is to take a picnic. They have beautiful spots to relax, and you can pair your lunch with the wine you've tasted. Saves some cash and makes for a lovely afternoon
Destiny Bay

I recommend checking out their social media for any last-minute deals or events. I found out about a discount tasting promo just a day before I went, which helped me save some cash.

I suggest bring a picnic! The views while enjoying that local wine are just breathtaking, and it saves you money instead of buying overpriced snacks. Plus, you can relax longer, taking it all in!
Te Mata Estate Winery
Pask Winery

Make sure to check out the cheese platter – it's a perfect pairing with their wines! I think it enhances the tasting experience a lot and is worth the extra cost.

If you want to save some money, try to buy the wine directly from the winery instead of in stores. They often have special deals or tastings you can join that aren’t available elsewhere

I recommend visiting on a weekday if you can. It was much less crowded and we got our wine tastings without the long wait.
Hopesgrove

I suggest visiting Hopesgrove during the week instead of the weekend if you can. It tends to get crowded on the weekends and you might miss out on some great tastings due to the rush.
I recommend asking about any specials or discounts at the tasting room. I missed out on a wine and cheese pairing deal that could've saved me quite a bit.
