 Hawkes Bay is New Zealand's premier wine country destination. It is maturing fast as a wine region - it has come a long way since the days when Glenvale was nestled in to that secret little sunspot that now houses Esk Valley - the Madeira and Muscatel are now giving way to superb Esk Valley Reds and challenging Chardonnays.

The Mission Estate, established in 1851 by 'visionary'
French Missionaries. Arriving in Hawke's Bay from France, the Mission's
forbears first discovered the region's potential for growing grapes, making
wine to celebrate Mass. |
