KEY POINTS:
Bic Runga is trading the traditional beach tour for an acoustic winery crawl that takes in some of New Zealand's best and most picturesque vineyards - from Matakana in the north to Millbrook in the south.
Her sister Boh will join her on the bill.
It's been a big year for singer and songwriter Runga, one in which she was made a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to music, toured the world in support of her third album, Birds, and made two new fans - Elton John and Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page.
