"Had the most amazing wine tasting experience with my father with Kate at Mishas.
She was so knowledgeable on the wines served, very personable and relatable which made the experience all the more enjoyable.
We ended up buying a selection of our favourites!
Cannot wait to enjoy throughout the year with family. Not the first time we have enjoyed Mishas wines.
Next time excited to enjoy their selection of good platters on offer."

"Central Otago wine tasting trail
Otago - this name will forever etched in my heart because 1) it's the name of the university in Dunedin where I spent 2 of the best years in my life; and 2) it's the area in South Island famous for its wineries producing some of the best pinot noir
We proceed to Cromwell for lunch - a satisfying one at Stoaker Room - and there I spotted Misha's Vineyard Tasting Room nearby. On unrelated note, do try Stoaker Room as the food rocks! Similar to the wine tasting sessions in this region, a nominal fee is charged for the tasting but will be waived if we purchase a bottle in the end. The sales personnel who attended to us here was friendly and attentive - we had the opportunity to taste one the best seller, Pinot Rose, and bought one in the end. It went to our stomach on the same day when we reached Dunedin."

"Beautiful wines a stones throw from the vines.
Stopped in here by chance and had a wonderful time. We were served by Misha herself who gave us a great verbal tour of her vineyard, backed up with glasses of Centrals finest. Obviously showcasing some great Pinot Noir labels they also boast a delightful range of other wines which are worth stopping for by themselves.
Sadly not at the vineyard itself but certainly a much more convenient location, this is a must stop for any traveller (I'm sure the locals are already regulars!)"
