Hegman is a superbly knowledgeable vintner and an absolute pleasure to spend an hour chatting about wines with, it helps immeasurably that his wines are really good (he loves the southern French style), and that he has a fantastic menu and open yard work a dining view to enjoy his food and wine in.
Very relaxing atmosphere and particularly lovely Pinot Gris and Montepulciano. The food platters are devine and really hit the spot. Lovely hosts Hegman and Bev, many thanks.
Lovely family run winery. Had beautiful platters available to enjoy with their wine.
Hegman was very friendly and welcoming, a very pleasant space, nice wines, and a pleasant host make for a great experience and definitely worth a visit. Will be going back again, and you should too.
Beautiful Location. Every name for the wine has a story you must ask Hegmann. The sparkling and late harvest wines are amazing. Rest are just fine. There's no food menu as such. So dining would not be a great idea honestly.
Awesome little vineyard, some very cool Italian style wines. The ‘Olivia’ is a special wine, worth putting away.
Enjoyed the wine tasting , 5 for $10 with the price redeemable on bottle purchase. Definitely recommend trying the flora and sparkling flora. Lovely setting outside, very picturesque with a great view over the countryside.
Fantastic location, friendly staff, and delicious wines to sample.
Great place for wine tasting and a nice platter!
Pleasant choice of wines, and good, simple selection of food. It us nice to eat outside the cellar and look at ... the hedge, knowing that there is a great view beyond it! (Cut the hedge back a little please.)
Great service, great wine, great view. What more could you want!
We visited the vineyard after tasting OIBV's Sauvignon Blanc at a local Matakana bar. We were not disappointed. Tremendous reds especially the classic Bordeaux blend and some interesting tastes with the Petit Verdot and Montepulciano. This vineyard is well worth a visit (Fridays to Sundays it is op
Fantastic spot. Great inside art exhibition. Devine food and extraordinary good rose sparkling. It would be worth just to come for the view :)
We visit every time we are in the area, always a wonderful experience, the platers are amazing and we just love the wine 🍷
Great people, great views over the bay from the patio where you are served an excellent lunch with wine to match. Top spot
Stunning views of Omaha and Little Barrier Island. Service and food was superb.
