Established in 1851, Mission Estate is the birthplace of New Zealand wine.Over 160 years of experience and passion have culminated in the current collection of Mission Estate, Vineyard Selection, Reserve, Jewelstone and Huchet award winning wines
Our grapes are sourced predominantly from Hawkes Bay, with modern viticulture and winemaking techniques practiced to ensure the long-standing reputation for quality is maintained. Housed in an elegantly restored historic seminary building with sweeping views across to Napier, Mission Estate offers visitors a year round complete wine experience.
A visit to the cellar door provides an opportunity to try a selection of the extensive range of wines and for those interested in history, the twice daily historic talk is a must. Lunch or dinner can be enjoyed seven days in the renowned Mission Restaurant, and the adjoining Chapel provides the ideal venue for a picturesque wedding reception or conference.

The MIssion Estate Winery Restaurant offers the ultimate in service, food and venue. Having visited this restaurant on many ocassions, be it for the romantic intimate dinner or the corporate function, I have yet to fault this impeccable restaurant.
The menu is seasonal, with always the freshest produce available. It is creative whilst still catering for all palates so I have been able to take young people and vegetarians there and not had concerns that there would be limitations for their needs. On special occassions, I have been able to mention this and the staff have always added special little touches to celebrate, for example writing in chocolate on the dessert plate happy anniversary.The venue is sublime for its views over Napier and the vineyards, or the building itself which is of historical significance. When you dine at The mission you are always treated like an old friend on arrival as they seem to remember everyone, but at the same time act with professionalism and respect and do not intrude on your evening. I would recommend this restaurant to all, be it wedding or rendevous, you wont be disappointed.
