Karikari Estate - Kaitaia

Stunning views,food great large portions coffee a little on the tepid side would have been five stars if it had been a little hotter

Wine tour was outstanding, Alan was super knowledgeable, and cellar was worth booking on it's own. Restaurant is gorgeous and the view is spectacular. Whole experience was faultless.

Not sure if I'm writing about the restaurant at Carrington Resort or just along the road at the winery and Cafe at Carrington Estate. Didn't know about the latter, so had a delicious lunch at the restaurant followed by dessert and a wine purchase from the Winery and Cafe! Both stunning.

Loved this little gem in the Far North. Wine tasting is free if you buy from the cellar. Paris gave us our tasting and she was lovely. Ate at the cafe after the tasting and had the calamari which was amazing! Thanks for a wonderful day guys!

We only drove in while passing through here. So not a comprehensive review. If you don't have much time, definitely just drive up to the top and take the view in. When we were there in February all the flowers and roses were out so it looked lovely. There had been a wedding on so the place was closed for lunch but does make a great spot on a lovely day to enjoy a wine with food. If you are staying at Peppers or Carrington Estate this place should be on your list to see.
