Māwhitipana Ridge Estate is a single-site vineyard located on Waiheke Island in a sunny coastal valley, producing limited vintages of premium Syrah and Marsanne.
We are two families with a shared passion for creating something special, with ‘awata’ or soul. Together, we are deeply committed to kaitiakitanga - protecting and enhancing the land or life force for our children, future generations and the local community. Our legacy is to respect and restore this land to a sustainable future.
Hand produced, our wine
naturally expresses the character of our site, from the heavy clay soil to the coastal elements, sunny slopes and low-intervention, sustainable growing techniques. With award-winning winemakers, Michael Wood and Heinrich Storm we produce wine in a way that honours the distinct characteristics of the unique site, soil and vines.
