Forbidden Fruit Winery Ltd t/a Karangahake Winery Estate

Forbidden Fruit Winery Ltd t/a Karangahake Winery Estate is rated 3 out of 5 in the category hospitality. Read and write reviews about Forbidden Fruit Winery Ltd t/a Karangahake Winery Estate. Formerly the Ohinemuri Winery, the Estate located in the Karangahake Gorge on SH2 between Paeroa and Waihi, and within an hour and half of Auckland, Hamilton, Tauranga and Rotorua. The Winery and Restaurant are couched in a native bush and formal garden setting above the Ohinemuri River. A 160m track leads from the Hauraki Rail Trail to the Cellar Door, making the Estate a great place to stop and "Rest & Refresh" after a long drive or hard peddle! Although the name and ownership have changed, the Restaurant serves the same great food lovingly prepared by the same great chefs, and the same fantastic wine had-crafted by the same talented Winemaker (Horst). The new owner, Chantelle, is dedicated to preserving the same wine, food, service and ambience that regulars have come to know and love, while at the same time serving up her own country style fruit wines, ports and ciders, hand-crafted in small batch vats on the property.
