Wairiki Estate

Wairiki is the super small passion project of Brent Linn and is a specialist producer of delicious Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Rosé wines.
Brent spent 25 years “outside the glass” before an extensive search led him in 2008 to Hawke’s Bay, to establish Wairiki from the ground up.
Wairiki has just one and a half hectares of vines located on the high stony terraces above the Ngaruroro River in the Mangatahi Terraces wine district of Hawke’s Bay. The sites elevation, gravel soils, hot days and cool nights are ideal for producing highly aromatic and textured wines that tell the story of place, passion and persistence.
Wairiki makes wines that are designed to be shared with friends over food and stories. Stocked by many notable restaurants but rarely seen in retail, this is a chance to taste and purchase a range of wines not widely available.
