Sileni Estates Reviews

Very nice winery with a great host who made our visit interesting and tasty. The venue is amazingly large and has a shop to buy everything from cheese knifes, to cheese to glassware.

Loved the wines here. The Sauvignon Blanc Circle 2013 is amazing and they Pino Noir. Expensive to buy, but you are experiencing a quality vinyard not a cheap supermarket.

Great Hawkes Bay wines and some varieties and styles which I haven't tried before. The staff were friendly and very knowledgeable.

The staff at Sileni were cheerful and helpful, interested in hearing what we had planned for our weekend in Hawkes Bay, suggesting places of local interest eg: Sunday morning farmers market in Hastings.
The shop has a varied range of gourmet food, glassware and original wooden trays made from wine barrels.
The wine was excellent and tasting was relaxed and fun.
Great place to visit.

Very exclusive, beautiful winery, great wines and excellent olive oil, very friendly staff, absolute recommendation!

Knowledgable staff, great wine and a fun atmosphere.

After touring 2 or 3 other vineyards it was nice to arrive at Seleni where Anne greeted us with a 'larger than life' information and tasting session. She was enthusiastic had a story for each wine and just really seemed to know her stuff.
I give Anne 5 stars and the wine 4 :) Well worth the visit if you're in the area.

Amazing evening yesterday at Sileni - a group of us arrived at 4:30 and stayed past closing, entertained with a generous amount of tastings and amazing hospitality. Would definitely recommend Sileni :) (and a special shout out to our lovely servers!)

Popped into Sileni on a cycle today. The team were so friendly and provided us an incredibly interesting and informative wine tasting, with a beautiful cheese and meat platter. We then tried some of their wine and chocolate pairings (a new thing for them) which were amazing! This was such a lovely thing to be able to do after lockdown for so many months, we had the best time! Would thoroughly recommend for awesome wine and food and great atmosphere.

Great experience with ample conversation both on the wine and general banter. Wines were very good highly recommend.

Driving through, show up with 10 minutes till close and the cellar door says tastings are done because the old gal wants to go home. Poor attitude for a business!

Great service and surroundings. The lady doing the tastings certainly knew all there was to know about wine.

Thoroughly enjoyable experiene and knowledgable and entertaining host. Value for money wine tasting.

I went on my birthday weekend and had a fabulous time. The wine was delicious and so was the banter with the sommelier. I would recommend dropping by for some quality wine if you're in the area.
