Waiheke Island climate. Never too hot. Never too cold. Moderate nights. Gentle breezes. A little water.

The special gift of Waiheke is its impeccable sense of place.

As the central land mass of North Island heats during the summer, afternoon sea breezes are drawn up the natural waterways and valleys to replace the rising warm air. This cooling air flows over the contours and valleys of Waiheke Island, sanding off the sharp edges of summer heat.

There is never panic among the vines. Nothing to distract them from their pursuit of perfection. Grapes with balance, structure, rich varietal flavors, and ripe tannins.
