Fodor's Expert Review Highfield TerraVin

Sitting high on the Brookby Ridge, with spectacular views over the Wairau Plains, this winery is marked by a Tuscany-inspired tower that visitors are welcome to climb. Highfield produces first-class sauvignon blanc, pinot noir, chardonnay, and riesling; their best, however, is a sparkling Elstree Cuvée Brut. You can relax and enjoy this magnificent setting in the Mediterranean-style Highfield Terra Vin Vineyard Restaurant, which opens for lunch daily.
