North Island Indulgence Tour

Mission Estate

Mission Estate is the birthplace of New Zealand wine, when the founders built the first winery in Hawke's Bay in 1851.
Housed in an elegantly restored historic seminary building the ever-popular award-winning Mission Restaurant offers diners exquisite cuisine. Excellent service, quality seasonal produce and award-winning wines combine to create a memorable experience. With only the freshest local produce used, the style of cuisine is contemporary with definite European influence. Mission Estate wines are offered exclusively on the wine list, and the waiting staff are well briefed to provide the best wine match option for each dish on the menu.

The Restaurant enjoys sweeping views of Napier city and the coast beyond. Beautiful by day and spectacular by night, the vista is unparalleled in Hawke’s Bay. Visitors are encouraged to wander through the beautifully manicured lawns and garden and soak up the ambiance of the estate, which makes the Mission a unique and special destination.

Te Awa Single Estate Wines

Destination dining at its finest.

Te Awa winery provides an outstanding wine and food experience inspired by fresh, local seasonal Hawke's Bay produce. A comprehensive a la carte menu pairs their single estate wines with fabulous cuisine and makes lunch at Te Awa an experience that is sought, savoured and remembered.

The wine, the cuisine, the friendly service, and the tranquil garden surrounds combine to provide a memorable occasion that is certainly more than the sum of its parts.

Church Road Winery

Church Road is one of the oldest in Hawke's Bay, founded in 1897. Their wines have earned a glowing reputation, becoming one of the most sought-after names in New Zealand restaurants.

After a sumptuous lunch platter of local meats and produce, cheeses and crackers; you can take a guided tour through our working winery (where you may see our winemakers in action) and New Zealand's first wine museum, and then enjoy a tasting of their extenstive range of  wines.

The wine museum is housed underground in old concrete wine vats. The walls are encrusted with sparkling, gem-like tartrate crystals, formed from the tartaric acid in the wine once stored here. The oldest winemaking relics in the country lie entombed here, some dating back 3000 years
