Overview

Join us for a place at our table and come home to Vineyard Cottages for local wine, and a classic Kiwi BBQ and meet a bunch of locals.
On this full day away from the city we travel out to the heart of the original New Zealand wine country, Kumeu. It’s a short trip out of town to visit a local farm shop.
We begin with coffee and a classic Kiwi morning slice and stock the shopping basket with local produce for the BBQ. We head out to the stunning Muriwai Beach then it’s off for a taste of local wines, and beer. You’ll visit the vineyard and the grounds of Vineyard Cottages before either getting stuck in and helping in the kitchen for the BBQ or just enjoy a wind-down and relaxing in the gorgeous surroundings.
Lunch is served on the deck and after we’ve enjoyed a taste of everything local it’s dessert time!

This tour is perfect for those who want to experience a taste of local, meet the locals, and hear the history of not only the wine region but it’s significance to the rest of NZ wine.
