About Paroa Bay Winery
This family-owned boutique winery in the Bay of Islands uses traditional, sustainable techniques and dry-grown vines to craft distinctive wines across 4.5 planted hectares. They're working with Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, and a range of reds like Syrah and Cabernet varieties, all shaped by the white clay soils and warm climate of their beautiful hilltop setting. They've also got luxury accommodation on the 24-hectare estate if you want to make a proper day of it.
