Come and visit us for a tasting of our award winning range of wines and enjoy a stroll through the gardens overlooking the pond and across to the Home Vineyard. There's plenty of seating and tables, with room to relax in the sun, and you're welcome to bring a picnic and make an afternoon of it. Kids can roam and climb on the adventure playground or hone their skills on the giant chess set.
Over the warmer months we run the popular Summer Sunday Jazz every weekend from early January. From cool grooves to warm vocals and laid back rhythms, it's the best way to spend an afternoon with friends and family. We'll serve you tasty platters, chilled wine and fresh coffee while you enjoy your picnic and the tunes. Best of all - the music's free for our customers!
Groups are welcome all year by arrangement, and outdoor functions over summer - call John to talk through your options: 09 412 8560 or email ccv_info@cooperscreek.co.nz
