About The Boneline
This North Canterbury winery is named after the K-T Boundary that marks the asteroid impact ending the dinosaur era, and they've got the fossils to prove it on their wine labels. You can wander their vineyard on a scenic 1-hour walk or hang in their native plant garden while tasting wines made with genuine humility and heart, no fanciness required.
