Mills Reef Winery Review
Owner-winemaker Paddy Preston of Mills Reef Winery used to make kiwifruit wine, but he hasn't looked back since he turned to the real thing. The lovely 20-acre complex includes the art-deco style Tasting Room and Restaurant. Alfresco dining is popular at the restaurant, which promises (and delivers) a menu of "Antipodean/Pacific Rim food blending the best of local produce and culinary innovations," matched of course with classy Mills Reef wines. It's open daily for lunch, longer on weekends for brunch (from 10 am), and Thursday nights for dinner (reservations essential). The cellar door/tasting room is open daily 10 to 5.
