Our grapes are grown within some of

the most prized winegrowing pockets of

Hawke’s Bay, celebrating the abundance

of the region. We prefer to let nature

determine the flavours of our wines,

which is another way of saying that

the only chemistry going on around

here is out there, on the vines.

You might say we’re a little rebellious

in our disregard for the accepted ways

of doing things. But when it comes

to making wine, we believe the less

interference from the meddlesome

hand of man, the better.

It seems to be working.

At Moana Park, we challenge accepted winemaking habits to produce wines that

are naturally grown, low in allergens and additives, and pure joy to drink.

Naturally.

The high of the high country.

The wonder of SILERE alpine origin merino comes from its connection to its elevated source - a pristine mountain environment of space, stillness and silence. Here the merino roam freely, foraging on native herbs, grasses and wild thyme. The result is a rare delicacy that truly captures the essence of the land.

To experience SILERE alpine origin merino, find a restaurant near you at www.silere.co.nz

Premier Selection Awards 2013 finalist dish by Robert Richardson of Molten Restaurant - Slow-roasted SILERE alpine origin merino lamb rump with eggplant purée, peas, fior di latte and white anchovy.

Back in 1975 an innovative energetic Mama Kan (Pauline) started a small intimate restaurant with eight tables, 30 plates and 30 bowls.

Pauline did most of the cooking herself as well as overseeing the daily purchase of fresh produce and occasionally the washing up after

service. She had a vision to introduce a different Chinese cuisine into Newmarket with a variety of dumpling delicacies and wok inspired

specialties, reminiscent of her renowned cookbook recipes. Following Mama Kan’s foundations, Pearl Garden still uses the simple

philosophy, good wholesome food using the freshest ingredients. On any given day you may see at least 3 generations of Kan’s working

in the restaurant. Pearl Garden believes the secret to success is ensuring that traditions and quality standards are maintained.

Flour and Water Eatery is a casual eatery set for the hungry, and the not so hungry. The perfect place to drop in and refuel. The menu is

designed around flavours true to the produce, simply served, plates to be shared in a relaxed and enjoyable way. All of the cooking is

done over the grill or in the woodfire oven, so there’s a real enhancement to the flavours. Order a selection of small plates and share them

around. Try something from the pizza bar, made with fresh, daily made dough. Then there’s the wine list – small, but perfectly formed.

Never forget dessert.

Bishop Hugh Latimer & Queen ‘Bloody’ Mary had their differences ending in a fiery episode with Latimer somewhat over-done. Honoured

in the namesake Latimer Square the Bishop and Queen are now reunited in the form of Bloody Mary’s Bar-Lounge-Grill.The grill draws

inspiration from the astounding Canterbury produce with seasonally focused, uncomplicated & approachable cuisine. The décor alludes

to a handsome hide-out for the dapper; dark oak timber, bluestone, plush leather and rich fabric all feature in a sophisticated space. The

low-lit lounge has a softer more romantic feel perfect for evening contemplation over a whiskey or flagship cocktail. Behind rolling oak

doors is the private dining room, a sexy enclave perfect for secluded festivity.
