The Northland wine trail has some gems, close by
Kerikeri is the place where the missionary Reverend Samuel Marsden planted New Zealand’s first vines in 1819. Northland is not only the oldest, but it is also the warmest growing region in New Zealand, making it uniquely suited to ripening a wide range of grape varieties. Warm spring temperatures, hot dry summers, and calm, clear autumn days mean fruit ripens early, creating full-bodied, rich and generous wine. Find the vineyards closest to your tiny house! https://northlandwinegrowers.co.nz/
