Location Te wāhi
152 Trig Hill Road, Onetangi, Waiheke Island
Iwi (tribal) affiliation(s): Ngāi Tai Ki Tāmaki, Te Waiohua, Te Ahiwaru, Te Kawerau ā Maki, Ngāti Tahinga, Ngāti Hine.
Tūāpae, meaning “anything bounding the horizon,” is a family-owned Māori vineyard named for its ridgeline location overlooking Waiheke Island and Tikapa Moana (the Hauraki Gulf).
The land spans tribal territory, and Tūāpae embraces its role as kaitiaki, or guardians, of the whenua, practising ki uta ki tai, meaning “from mountains to sea.” This philosophy recognises that viticulture influences not only the soil and fruit quality but also the health of the streams flowing to the surrounding moana.
Tūāpae grows cabernet sauvignon, merlot, malbec, and cabernet franc, crafting Bordeaux blends and single varietal wines that reflect a commitment to sustainability, heritage, and land stewardship. Book your visit today!
