stay at Napier's premier wine themed B&B in Hawkes Bay New Zealand. wine tour guide / foodie in a beautiful property walking distance to two of NZ's oldest wineries and fine dining. This is a world class wine region with GREAT SYRAH, Bordeaux Blends, and many white varietals. Climate like Napa/ Bordeaux, Margaret River, 39 degrees South of the equator. Terroir extraordinaire!

Just thought I might remind members of the Wine Travel Guides blog in case you haven't looked at in a while - whereas the main site only covers Europe (mainly France), the blog is worldwide. The latest post I've written is on Constantia in the Cape winelands from where I've just returned - really brilliant place for wine tourism. Previous posts have been on Chablis/France, Vienna/Austria, Primorska/Slovenia etc. All comments appreciated!
