“Vince gave up his Sunday to take out just the two of us. He is very knowledgeable and knows all the cellar door staff so well, we got A1 treatment. Stopped for a platter at Ash Ridge. Vince is 'the man' for Napier Wine Tours.”

“Vince and Lyn were waiting for us on time at the designated spot and took us to 4 amazing wineries out from Napier. They were very professional in their knowledge of wine and the cellar door staff were welcoming and friendly. An excellent afternoon which we highly recommend.”

“Vince and Lyn are champions of Hawkes Bay wines. Lyn was, without a doubt, the most informative, delightful, knowledgeable person we've encountered in NZ. We had a marvelous time, spent far too much on excellent wines, and had one of the best days we've experienced in New Zealand.”

“Not only is a tour through our local vineyards with Vince educational and inspiring, it’s also highly entertaining! Vince continues to explore and appreciate new styles of wine, staying relevant by furthering his knowledge and continuing to move forward as wine in New Zealand does.”

Nick Picone, Villa Maria Group Chief Winemaker
“We always look forward to hosting Vince and Lyn as they are the best local tour operators. Their guests arrive informed, relaxed and smling ready to enjoy their time with us – making the visit fun for all concerned.”

Bob & Carolyn Armstrong, Hawkes Ridge Winery
“Vince has a way of saying, 'Dan, I promised my tour a special tasting.' So after over a decade of knowing him and how well he understands what his tour groups want and their palates, who am I to say no to opening the flash stuff? Vince has seen the industry evolve and has been singing its praises right from when Hawke's Bay was just a few small wineries, to now, where we are known as New Zealand's Fine Wine Capital.”

Dan Barker, Owner & Winemaker at Moana Park Winery
“When I came into the world of wine in Hawkes Bay, Vince was often along with his smile and words of wisdom; his knowledge of the local industry and its wines are second to none. He cares about the service he offers and ensures his clients enjoy a relaxed yet informed enjoyable day.”

Terry, Unison Vineyard
