Man O' War Vineyards

A wine tasting room right on the beach, which sounds made up but isn't. Man O' War stretches across an enormous estate on Waiheke's eastern coast, taking in vineyards, olive groves, orchards, forest, farmland, and enough livestock to keep things honest. Pull up at the country's only beachfront tasting room and work through wines grown across dozens of individual plots. The setting does a lot of the talking, but the wines are genuinely characterful enough to hold their own.
