AMAZING day out - My husband and I participated in this tour with Ross as our guide. Ross was amazing and knowledgeable about the region history, growing process and could answer just about any question. The wineries selected were diverse and gave us a great overview of the wines in the area. The lunch which started the day and cheese and biscuits at the end of the day were perfect! Highly recommend this tour and Ross as the guide

A great wine tasting in the Hawkes Bay summer - Thoroughly enjoyed our tour and wine tasting with Ross. He was a very knowledgeable guide, having lived in the area for many years, and took us to some great vineyards. Our lunch at Mission Estate was memorable and delicious. A beautiful setting with some great wines. Trinity Hill offered some great reds in a gorgeous space. It was great to meet some new people and a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. Highly recommend!

Excellent Day! - Excellent tour. Ross picked us up exactly on time in a comfortable mini bus. The pace was just right and the company was excellent. Visited 2 vineyards and a distillery - all with around 5 drinks to taste - more than enough for anyone 🙂 The lunch and setting at Mission Estate was stunning - if anything could be improved it would be to spend a little more time there just enjoying the fantastic house and surroundings (minor point). Overall a brilliant day and definitely good value. Thanks Ross!

Great variety of wines - Ross was great but he was let down by one vineyard which was closed despite accepting his booking. However the wine choices were excellent.
