This is our favourite vineyard and we have been visiting on a regular basis for the last six years. The team here produce some fabulous wines, which we are proud to serve to guests - if there are any left in the cupboard. The Johner staff are so welcoming and almost feel like family when we visit. Their on-line ordering and delivery service was a life-saver during lock down - well sanity saver anyway. Take the back road to Johner - you will not regret it.

Went there for a tasting last Saturday. 20 minutes from Masterton, signposted from SH2, Very friendly welcome and excellent tasting. Quiet at moment but quite a small tasting room so might get busy in summer. Great selection of wines and at reasonable prices. You'll see their wines in a lot of restaurants and bars around Masterton. Definitely would recommend.

We have just spent the weekend of Toast Martinborough at this wonderful destination. The hosts were so accommodating, they drove us down to the bus in the morning and picked us up in the afternoon. They are welcoming and friendly and it was like a peaceful haven away from the madding crowd. Thanks for being great hosts in a beautiful environment.Congratulations Peter and Karen. Keep it up!!
