Awsome place for a drink and a spot of lunch. Recommend the tasting board. Plenty enough for two.

About Winery and Wines

‘Wairau’ is the Maori word meaning ‘many waters’ and is the name of the beautiful braided river that runs alongside our largest vineyard feeding life into the vines and influencing the style of our wine. The Wairau River traces the foothills of the Richmond Ranges and has created the river flood plains of the valley over thousands of years, formed of light, stony soil which is key to the success of Marlborough’s world class style of Sauvignon Blanc. Highfield wines from the Wairau Valley area typically have intense fruit aromatics and fine minerality. The Southern Valleys are fast becoming renowned for top quality Pinot Noir because of the heavier clay soils, drier climate and cooler temperatures than that of the lower Wairau Valley. Some of the best Highfield Pinot Noir is sourced at Mill Stream vineyard surrounding Highfield in the Omaka Valley. Papillon Vineyard in the Brancott Valley has plantings of Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. These gentle, north facing slopes see all day sun giving strong, bright flavours to the grapes and lovely clarity and structure to the wines. Both our Southern Valley Vineyards are farmed organically.
