Description

Go beyond the traditional Queenstown wine tour on an afternoon combining Central Otago wine, New Zealand artisan gin and locally brewed craft beer — with spectacular wine-country and alpine river scenery along the way. Escape Queenstown and journey into Gibbston Valley wine country, surrounded by vineyards and rugged mountains. Visit Gibbston Valley Wines, the founding winery of the Gibbston wine region, and taste Central Otago wines including the Pinot Noir that helped put the region on the world wine map. Then take your glass outside and wander amongst the Home Block vines, experiencing Pinot Noir right where its story began. Switch things up at GT Tasting Room at Gibbston Tavern, where you'll taste locally crafted New Zealand gin from producers such as Rifters or Broken Heart. Prefer to stay with wine? A wine tasting option is available. Then journey from Gibbston's vineyards towards the dramatic Shotover River and Canyon Brewing. With its own on-site microbrewery, relaxed beer garden and spectacular position above the river, it's one of Queenstown's most impressive places to experience locally brewed craft beer. Settle in for a tasting flight while taking in the canyon and mountain views, with a wine option available if preferred. Throughout the afternoon, your New Zealand-born Queenstown local guide takes care of the driving and shares local knowledge along the way. With adults-only departures and a maximum of 10 guests, the experience stays relaxed and social — perfect for couples and friends wanting something different from a traditional wine tour. From Pinot Noir among the vines to craft beer above the Shotover. Three distinctive tasting experiences. One afternoon beyond the usual wine tour.
