About Heaphy Vineyard
Heaphy Vineyard sits high above Tasman Bay in Nelson, where vines first planted in 1973 still produce some of New Zealand's oldest wines on those signature clay soils. It's a small operation in the northwest corner of the South Island that proves good things really do come with age.
