Playing at a dozen wineries around the country this summer is a trio of beloved Kiwi acts: Bic Runga, Brooke Fraser and Benny Tipene.

Celebrating its 10th anniversary, The Winery Tour 2017 has 12 outdoor gigs scheduled around Aotearoa - including, for the first time, Wellington's Basin reserve.

Runga was just last week announced as this year's VNZMA Legacy award winner, an honour bestowed upon New Zealand's most important musicians.

She and Fraser are both Silver Scroll honourees, while Tipene was a hit on TV3's The X Factor NZ.

Fraser is returning home from LA for the tour, following the release of her new album A Sides in early November.

The Winery Tour 2017 will launches on January 27 at Tauranga's Wharepai Domain and concludes at Auckland's Villa Maria Winery on February 19.

Tickets go on sale October 31 - full details are available at winerytour.co.nz.
