Waitapu Estate Vineyard — Attraction in Te Hiku Community

Wow!!! This was the best wine tasting experience we have had! Eric was so friendly and made us feel really welcome from the get go - his love of life, travel stories, and knowledge of wine turned everything into an amazing experience! The wines and port were absolutely delicious - we would 100% recommend making a stop here, you won't regret it!! Thanks again Eric for making our day, and for the special treat you gave us for my birthday, it went down swimmingly well with our dinner! ☺️...

Randomly saw signs for a winery and decided to visit and man am I glad we did. We got a tour of the estate while another group tasted which was an excellent moment to enjoy the view. Then we had our tasting which was full of meaningful conversation and which was pressure free (no pressure to buy wine or to hurry up). Ended up really enjoying ALL the wines, especially due to Eric's anecdotes on how each was made. Eric and Sandra went above and beyond 😍And the wine...

We were warmly welcomed on a Saturday to this lovely estate, with a stunning view of the coast and beautiful decor.

The host was extremely engaging, friendly, and knowledgable, and delivered an enjoyable experience. Delicious wines from their estate vines and also a very environmentally aware and wildlife friendly location.

Would most definitely recommend...
