Summer Wine Series ‘24 was a hit!
Unique Wines from Waiheke at this year’s Summer Wine Series were a hit!
Jasper Ridge partnered again with Waiheke Real Estate to bring a taste of Waiheke’s hidden wine gems to Oneroa in November and December 2024.
Waiheke Island, renowned as New Zealand’s Island of Wine, is home to a close knit community of winemakers, each crafting wines with their own unique flair. This summer, we’re proud to showcase exceptional wines from four boutique vineyards that are typically off the beaten path.
Lots of visitors new to the island and locals alike joined us for an exclusive wine tasting experience in the heart of Waiheke Island’s main village, Oneroa. Visitors:
Met the Makers: Connect with the winemakers and teams behind these unique wines.
Tried exclusive wines: Try award winning wines that are usually hard to find, perfect for day visitors and wine enthusiasts alike. These vineyards either don’t have tasting rooms or are located in remote areas, such as the Eastern End of Waiheke.
From some of the smallest Waiheke Island Vineyards:
With a bonus treat: Of a complimentary tasting of Te Matuku Grove olive oil, made from their olive groves located at the Eastern End of Waiheke.
