    We had a fantastic afternoon at Art.Wine@Dunstone, the party was as bubbly as the Marie J cap classique! The food & wine pairing was sublime and the fashion show broke the bank. Can definitely recommend!

    A little off the familiar track up Wellington way, our trip to Roots Bistro at Dunstone Estate turned out to be a very pleasant surprise. It is a smaller winery with a more intimate charm and unique character that is sometimes missing at some of the bigger estates. Maudie and Dirk were wonderful hosts with a great personal touch. For red wine lovers their 2023 grenache or and the grenache/shiraz blend were a good choice. The well prepared menu by an enthusiastic young chef at the bistro allowed for a long, lazy lunch. It was an afternoon well spent in a lesser known yet very beautiful wine region and definitely worth a visit.

    Great food & service and nothing better than sitting in the outdoors under the trees and taking in the quiet.
