Te Mata Estate Winery - Parkvale
About Te Mata Estate Winery
Te Mata Estate was originally part of Te Mata Station, a large pastoral land-holding established by English immigrant, John Chambers, in 1854. A homestead and stables were built on the property in the early 1870’s.
After returning from France, John Chamber’s third son, Bernard, had the idea to plant vineyards on the north-facing hills around Havelock North. In 1892, Bernard Chambers planted vines on three parcels of hillside land above the homestead and began converting the original stables to ferment and mature these first Te Mata Estate Wines. Today, Te Mata Estate still uses those same three vineyards.
The Chambers family sold the property in 1919. Te Mata Vineyards (TMV) was established and the property had two other owners until it was acquired by the Buck and Morris families in 1974 – the two families behind the modern interpretation of this historic New Zealand estate.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely location and friendly staff. Wines were very nice overall. I was however really sad not to get a chance to taste their top wines. Why not add an extra $5-10 option to try them? Seems like a huge missed opportunity.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went today for the first time in I don't know how long. We knew it was going to be busy, but, nothing was a problem. Had a platter with their organic chardonnay in the sun with the dog :) Lovely atmosphere and very dog friendly too. Will be back with friends and family. Thank you :)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We were given a very interesting and informative tour by Hannah. Her enthusiasm for the wine, the process and the tasting that followed was infectious. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. We came away with a few bottles of excellent wine. I would thoroughly recommend visiting this winery for those who want a more personal winery tour.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had a great tasting and the lady was nice and knowledgeable. We ended up buying wine, but on top of that we got charged the tasting.. who does that? We bought your wines, personally came to your winery, and you charge us for being there and buying your products? A strange way to get loyal customers...
We went last year and didn’t get charged for it, why would it be different this time?
Won’t go back

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We came from Wellington and had the pleasure of having Jason talks us through the Te Mata history and wines. His enthusiasm and passion definitely shone through. We had such a good time and would recommend to anyone who wants more of an experience than just sitting having a wine.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Excellent and friendly staff who were funny and interactive. Even though there was a 10 minute wait, they made sure we were engaged. We were disappointed that we were turned away from 3 wineries before this (not enough staff, too busy etc) but felt really welcomed here for a fun tasting experience. Their wines were great and we were happy to take $$$ worth in 2 cases back to Auckland. Keep up the great work Te Mata winery. We will be back...
