Great introduction to Hawkes Bay wineries
We had a wonderful time with Greg on the Grape Escape wine tour. We took in four unique wineries each offering a different experience - both Greg and the wineries were very informative and friendly. I highly recommend

A Great Experience!
A great day out with Robbbie, Norm and Bobby. Very informative commentary and lots of opportunities to interact with the group whilst tasting a huge variety of wines. Robbie was friendly and a breath of fresh air. All of the vineyards were friendly and knowledgeable with expert staff. The cheeseboard was really enjoyable. Excellent and value for money.
