Sip, Savour & Discover Central Otago’s Pinot Noir

Journey into the heart of New Zealand’s most celebrated wine region, where dramatic alpine landscapes meet world-class winemaking. This full-day escape takes you through the iconic Valley of the Vines, with guided tastings at Central Otago’s most acclaimed wineries and the chance to experience Pinot Noir at its source. It’s more than a tour — it’s a story told in every sip.

Gibbston Valley Wines – Venture into the founding winery of the Gibbston Valley sub-region, where Central Otago’s cool-climate wine story began. At Gibbston Valley Wines, you’ll explore New Zealand’s largest wine cave, carved deep into the schist rock, before enjoying a guided tasting of handcrafted Pinot Noir, crisp cool-climate white varietals, and delicate rosés. It’s a dramatic and unforgettable start to your wine journey.

Kinross – In the heart of the Valley of the Vines, Kinross is the official cellar door for boutique legends including Valli, Hawkshead, Wild Irishman, and High Garden. Each pour showcases the diversity of Central Otago terroir, from elegant Pinot Noir to expressive aromatic whites. After your tasting, it’s time for lunch — relax in the wine garden or the cozy bistro, where a seasonal menu of shared dishes (at own expense) is designed to complement the wines.

Amisfield – Your day concludes with a world-acclaimed finale at Amisfield, one of New Zealand’s most celebrated wineries and officially ranked among the World’s Top 100 Restaurants (2024). At their striking cellar door, minimalist architecture frames dramatic alpine views while you indulge in a premium guided tasting of their flagship Pinot Noir and expressive cool-climate whites. This is Central Otago winemaking at its finest — and the perfect ending to your Queenstown wine adventure.
