Project Description

Experience wine tastings and a delicious lunch in the stunning Valley of the Vines, located just 30 minutes from Queenstown in Gibbston Valley.

This tour transports wine-lovers to one of Central Otago’s most scenic sub-regions to visit three renowned vineyards situated between rugged schist mountains and the rocky Kawarau River gorge.

The morning begins with a tasting (or two) before immersing yourself in a sensory, otherworldly experience in New Zealand’s largest wine cave. Beyond the grape, enjoy a seasonal shared lunch platter at a winery restaurant where you can sit back, relax and take in the views before heading back to Queenstown.

Your guide and cellar door staff have a wealth of knowledge about the history of this region’s world-class grapes and the unique growing environment and terroir of Gibbston Valley.

Departing from Queenstown with complimentary hotel transfers, the lunchtime tour includes door-to-door travel in Alpine Wine Tours’ fleet of stylish European vehicles, a friendly guide, lunch, the cave tour and wine tastings, as well as a complimentary souvenir to take home and remember your day.
