WHAT TO EXPECT

A vineyard AND craft brewery tasting all in one - at Wild on Waiheke we perform an informative yet humorous tasting that promises not to intimidate (we're not that serious round here). Instead we give you a friendly and welcoming introduction to our unique family owned venue.

First up we greet you with a taste of our very own Wild Estate wine from our boutique vineyard, of which extremely limited wines are sold exclusively at Wild on Waiheke.

At Wild on Waiheke, we’re passionate about two things: our craft brewery and our boutique vineyard. Come visit us on our charming family-owned venue on Waiheke Island and try our amazing wine and beer tasting. We try to make our tastings as both fun and informative as possible. We don’t take things too seriously around here, so we don’t want our tastings to be too technical. Instead, we want you to have fun, drink some awesome beer and wine and learn a little while you’re at it.

First, we start off with a glass of our delicious Wild Estate wine from our very own boutique vineyard. The only place you can buy this particular wine is actually at Wild on Waiheke. This means you can consider yourself our special guest since you get to try it.

Next up, we explore a few beauties from our outstanding craft brewery. We’ll serve you a taste of two of our most popular craft beers which will change the way you think about beer forever. We brew these beers out back and have them on tap in the store so our guests always get the best of the best.

While you sip on your beer, we’ll bring out some yummy treats for you: a sample of Te Matuku Oysters. They’re a local seafood delicacy and are simply a little piece of heaven. And don’t worry – if you’re not a big fan of oysters, we’ll be happy to replace yours with an extra taste of wine or beer.

To round off your awesome visit at Wild on Waiheke, we’ve prepared something very special. We’re famous all over the world (or at least here on Waiheke Island) for our all-natural ginger beer, and guess what – you’ll get to try it! It’s the star of our craft brewery and we’re very proud to serve it to you. To pamper you a little extra, we’ll serve samples of our own sauces, spreads and chutneys which you can also buy in our store. But be careful – they’re addictive!

Your host during this lovely beer and wine tasting is our cellar door manager who is quite the comedian. He likes to mix in plenty of jokes to make the tasting a little less technical and intimidating. In other words, we want your visit at Wild on Waiheke to be informative without making you feel like you’re in an advanced science class. This way, all you need to do is come out to us on Waiheke Island and let us pamper you with our best wine and beers.
