Passage Rock Wines
Waiheke Island, New Zealand
Passage Rock Wines sits along Orapiu Road on Waiheke Island's quieter southeastern edge, where the vineyard's distance from the ferry-crowd circuit keeps the atmosphere unhurried. The winery is part of Waiheke's serious wine-producing tier, an island that punches well above its size in New Zealand's premium wine conversation. For visitors making the crossing from Auckland, it rewards those willing to travel past the obvious stops.
