A delicious little ray of sunshine!  In fact Hihi means "Rays of the Sun" - named after the fact that Gisborne is the first place on earth to see the sun rise.

Hihi Wines is a small boutique winery based in Ormond, Gisborne. Their range of wines are testamount to the Gisborne region. Andrew Nimmo at the helm does everything - from crushing the grapes to selling the wine. Although fairly small, Hihi has produced 60+ award winning wines and counting.

The classic Chardonnay is a deliciously rounded, nutty and tropical style of Chardonnay.  Aromas of peaches, bees wax and rockmelon. On the palate more tropical fruit, cashew and prickly spices.
