Hi, this is my talk page

Isn't it good!!

I came up with the idea of a Waiheke Island website as I was disappointed by the self-serving drivel of the majority of websites that purport to represent Waiheke Island.

Most of these web sites have a commercial bias and do not reflect the unique nature of New Zealand's third most populated island.

I wanted a web page that was like a diorama of Waiheke.

With the help of a team of dedicated and talented people the idea has developed and blossomed into Waihekepedia. It is based on [http://www.mediawiki.org MediaWiki]

Peninsula Estate

2007-08-21T04:01:38Z

Pickle:

Peninsula Estates philosophy is simple.To make world class, premium red wine. Wine that can be cellared confidently for many years, wine to be enjoyed with good food. We believe that great wine is made in the vineyard with careful canopy management and an eye to detail. Our wines are truly handcrafted.

Located on Waiheke Island and situated high on a northern point which juts out into the Hauraki Gulf, Peninsula Estate is one of the most picturesque vineyards in New Zealand. To the east are the sands of [[Oneroa Bay]], to the North Rakino Island and Great Barrier, and to the west, Auckland city lies hazy in the distance, some 25km away.

Waiheke Island enjoys a warm, dry ripening season, and the combination of the maritime influence on the climate and good drainage has helped produce the wines that give the Island an international reputation for Cabernet. Syrah is another variety proving it has a big future on the island.

The vineyard was planted in 1986/87 and has seen production spanning 3 decades. These original plantings of cabernets sauvignon and franc, merlot and malbec, also now include chardonnay and syrah

=====The Baroona ferry plied the Waiheke run through the 1930s until she was laid up with an engine failure in 1965. She did return to the Waiheke service for a time but was later replaced by larger ferries able to handle the increase in passengers to the island. The Baroona went on to serve on the Devonport run for many years.

=====The Baroona, a Fairmile ferry was built in Australia in 1904. She served variously as a coastal cargo ship, an inter-island trader in Samoa and a deep-water trawler for Sanfords before serving Waiheke as a ferry. She is now on dry land, converted to a themed pirate restaurant.
