Maude Wines

About

This family-owned winery in Central Otago was born from the expertise of Sarah-Kate and Dan Dineen, who craft wines from their estate vineyard planted back in 1994 on the slopes above Lake Wanaka. Their tiny vineyard parcels produce individual reserve wines that are the real stars of the range. Pop into their Wanaka cellar door Thursday to Monday, noon to 5pm, though it's worth checking ahead as seasons shift things around.
