Black Estate - New Zealand

We came here for lunch and had the wine pairing, amazing food and great wines! If I was being harsh I'd say there were slightly too many raw parts of the menu-tartare, raw lamb and white fish crudo but honestly we had a great time! And the views were beautiful!!!

Genuinely surprised to find this family owned local winery. I love the slightly fusion food with the specially prepared sauces. The scenery is open and relaxing. Do try out the Riesling and Pinot Noir; I personally like them the best. The venison entree is stunning and so is the seasonal vege. All in all, this restaurant restored my faith in fine dining around the Canterbury area. Lastly but not the least, the staff are really bubbly and helpful. Thank you!

We arrived at Black Estate Water wines by bike and were served delicious food by gracious staff. We drunk the wine from the block directly in front of us. World class food and location.

Probably one of my favourite places in NZ. The food is seriously excellent, the wine is out of this world and the setting is breathtaking. It’s a small scale place. Intimate. The staff are excellent and you just don’t want to leave. No coach parking. The sign of a good winery. My go to for showing off the best of the region to out of towners and overseas mates.

What a great location, with a wonderful view of the vineyard. The staff couldn't have been more friendly. The menu was original, the food beautifully plated and it tasted amazing. Black Estate is a must visit.
