Exploring Hawkes Bay, New Zealand - Arataki Honey, Clifton & More - North Island Roadtrip Vlog Day 9
Day 9 of our 42-day trip around the North Island of New Zealand was a work and exploration day in Napier, Hawkes Bay. We started the day with some work and then headed out for the afternoon. First stop, lunch at The Black Shed.
From there we left Napier and headed to Havelock North to check out Arataki Honey before making our way down to Clifton. As the sun was going down, we came back to Napier and got dinner at Indigo Indian Restaurant again and had our minds blown with more amazing Indian cuisine. Finally, we enjoyed the night lights around Napier, including the beautifully lit Tom Parker Fountain.
We stayed at the Nautilus Hotel for the duration of our time in Napier. The Nautilus is an absolutely beautiful hotel, I can't recommend it enough. Enjoy!

Trinity Hill Homage 2015 Launch
New Zealand's finest Syrah is only made in years when the grapes are at their best. Hence why in 15 years there has only been 8 vintages. I had the privilege of being one of a select group of wine adorers who flew down to the Hawkes Bay to taste the latest (2015) vintage.
The WINERAM Experience - Episode 5
Episode 5 takes up to the Hawkes Bay Wine Region for some top end Syrah at Trinity Hill Winery with legendary winemaker John Hancock. Adventure to be had there included a quick trip north to Jo's home town of Gisborne to catch up with New Zealand Surfing Series Champion Bobby Hansen, see some waves and then go tackle and sheer some sheep!

Beyond Sauvignon Blanc...Trinity Hill
New Zealand is known world wide for its wonderful Sauvignon Blanc. Especially in the Canadian market, this varietal is the one that fills our New Zealand sections in the wine stores. But, as part of a series called Beyond Sauvignon Blanc we look at what else New Zealand has to offer our market and others.
A stop at Trinity Hill in Hastings on the north Island was a wonderful highlight on our tour of various wineries on the north and south islands of New Zealand. John Hancock and Warren Gibson, plus the rest of team at Trinity Hill, made the visit a purely enjoyable and informative. It was truly an honour to meet and spend time with them. Felt right at home.
***Sorry for the popping noise in the first few minutes of the video. It was both the guns going off at the Army Training facility and the pops set off to scare birds away from the vines.
Watch for our other videos as part of the Beyond Sauvignon Blanc series in the coming weeks.
Stuart MacGill wines about Trinity Hill
I'd never met John Hancock from Trinity Hill before this visit to his winery. I reckon within 10 minutes he'd made me feel as though we'd been mates for years. I've seen him several times since, and every time he's been equally warm and genuinely interested in catching up. He's a great bloke, and I'm look forward to sharing a bottle again with him someday.
I forgot to tell you that he makes sensational wine!
