Clearview undisputed winery experience in Hawke’s
Bay
A visit to Hawke’s Bay is not complete
without time spent at one of the region’s award winning
wineries, and now Clearview Estate Winery and Restaurant on
the Te Awanga coast is the undisputed place to go.
For the
third year in a row, the boutique winery and its rustic Red
Shed Restaurant has taken out the Outstanding Winery
Experience award; no mean feat when judged by the most
critical of local hospitality standards, the industry
itself.
Clearview received the award at the eighth
Hawke’s Bay Hospitality Awards last night (Monday 25 May)
at a gala celebration organised by Food Hawke’s Bay.
Organisers have acknowledged that Clearview Estate is
respected for being able to maintain its quality standards
since pioneering food and wine in the vines in the region in
1991. It is one of only a few restaurants with such
longevity in Hawke’s Bay.
“What an absolute thrill to
be recognised by our peers yet again alongside some very
strong competition,” commented Helma van den Berg, who
together with Tim Turvey, founded the business 25 years
ago.
“It’s a heart-warming recognition of our enduring
commitment to our vision, sustained by a team who live and
breathe it; they are passionate and professional at the top
of their game.”
The awards are voted on by industry
workers, owners, chefs, waiters, bartenders, baristas,
suppliers and sales reps to select the most outstanding from
those nominated in 13 award
categories.
