Highlights
  • Kumeu River Wines - Kumeu River Winery

Founded in 1944 by Mick Brajkovich, wife Katé and son Maté, Kumeu River was one of the early pioneers in Auckland, New Zealand, that helped to establish its reputation as a world-class wine region. Still family owned and run, Kumeu River continues to pioneer new frontiers: winemaker Michael Brajkovich became New Zealand’s first member of the prestigious Institute of Masters of Wine, London, and has been testing and championing screw cap closures for close to 20 years.

Although best known for their Chardonnay and Pinot Noir they also produce the Kumeu Crémant:

“The wine is made mostly from Chardonnay, the key grape at this small family owned and operated wine specialist; here it makes up 60% of this wine’s blend, with the balancing 40% being Pinot Noir. The wine is bone dry with lots going on and flavours that remind me of fresh bread, fresh goat’s cheese and a hint of honey and citrus.

Get Jose as your guide and it will guarantee you a great experience - We had Jose (female, pronounced like the Dutch would say) as a guide and it was the most delightful experience. She made the whole trip wonderful for my sister and me. The three wineries got better and better and lunch at Westbrook winery was relaxing and delicious. But the highlight of our trip was a stop at the beach. We took plenty of photos (thank you Jose), walked the black sand and collected sea shells. Of all the tours we have taken to date on our long trip, this was by far the best. Jose is wonderful!

A must-do for wine aficionados! - A great day visiting wineries, sampling new wines, and learning about the history of wine in the region. Susan provided great insights and even some bonus anecdotes about the Rings of Power filming nearby!

Fun little tour. Jose was... - Fun little tour. Jose was fun, personable and informative. The Pinot Noir from Soljan Estate Winery is amazing and Tyler our host was wonderful. I like the fact that no matter how many or few participants, they run the tour anyway. We had a private tour! Loved it!
