Discover Auckland'sWine Bar SceneWinetopia arrives in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland this October as New Zealand’s largest wine-tasting event, with bold reds, crisp whites, great food, and sparkling conversation. Head to the event, then explore Auckland’s wine bars to keep sipping and snacking long after. Here’s your cheat sheet to the best post-Winetopia adventures.
Like stepping into a streetscape from the South of France, Bon Pinard in Birkenhead will draw you in with its candlelight, rustic timber, and expertly poured wine. The list is deliciously curated, with a blend of Kiwi and European drops, so you can trust every pick will be a good one.
Mount Albert’s friendly neighbourhood wine bar has mastered the art of unfussy good times. Bar Martin is where you’ll find locals lingering over international drops, charcuterie boards, and the last rays of afternoon sun in the courtyard.

Created by wine personality David Nash, this Freemans Bay spot is where you can taste, learn, and luxuriate within a wine bar surrounded by over 350 labels from around the globe.
Somm on Princes Wharf brings the cellar door to the city. Set right on the waterfront, it’s an urban tasting room where you can sample flights from New Zealand’s big names and boutique gems, then pair them with irresistible sharing dishes made from fresh local fare.
