Tiwaiwaka Wines - Martinborough

My pilates group xmas lunch at Tiwaiwaka was lovely, all my annoying dietary needs were catered for with my own plate and the 2 person platter satisfied 4 people easily. Top experience and although I can’t drink wine everyone else reported loving all the wine they tasted.

Cute little vineyard with a private garden setting in the shade. For tastings, it is $2 per wine or $10 for the full range per person. There was also delicious lemonade for $2 a glass which was delightful and refreshing. The platter $48) for two was plentiful and delicious with a wide range of expensive local produce, eg. salmon, cured meats, cheeses, pickled walnuts not your everyday pickles and crackers. Service was attentive but unintrusive. Had a very pleasant afternoon visit.

We really enjoyed this small family owned vineyard. Nice sheltered outdoor area, the tasting prices were very reasonable $10 for 5 wines) and both owners displayed their knowledge and passion for what that make. Also enjoyed the antipasto platter which comprised all local produce. The Chardonnay drizzle is excellent. Definitely worth a visit.

Absolutely phenomenal! The hosts were very welcoming and knowledgeable about their products. I had the tasting flight, 5 tasters for $15. They hosts explained each wine as they poured it, the aromas, tastes, and how it was made and from which grapes in their vineyard. We also had a hummus platter and 2 sharing platters. All the food was locally sourced or home made and the olives and hummus particularly were delicious. We had a walk around the vines and looked at the different varietals. It was a wonderful experience, reasonable prices for the high quality products and absolutely fabulous service! Top vineyard of the day!

Our group of 8 were welcomed and made to feel at home. We loved the personal service, story of each wine, and the platters, which were a mix of very tasty home made and local produce. The family atmosphere and involvement in this business, was evident,, as was their passion. Thoroughly recommend this boutique vineyard.
