Queenstown's Original
Wine Tour
The Queenstown Wine Trail follows the story of wine production in the area.
Gibbston Valley Wines released the region’s first commercial wine vintage
in 1987. Since then the region and its several vineyards have become famous
for producing premium wines, particularly pinot noir. Winemaking at 45 south
is an adventurous business. The vineyards here are at high altitude and subject
to cold winters, hot dry summers and a huge night to day temperature range.
Such adversity has led to pioneering winemaking, consistently superb wines,
worldwide recognition and a plethora of international awards.
Each winery in the Queenstown region is a unique reflection of the pioneering
spirit and passion for wine common to the local winemakers and viticulturalists.
There are several vineyards in the Queenstown region. We choose the best vineyard
combinations to provide an unhurried tour for each group on any given day.
A knowledgeable, fun and friendly guide will escort you from Queenstown into
the wine country of the scenic Wakatipu region. At each vineyard you’ll
meet a member of the vineyard for a close up perspective of the local wine.
Whether your palate is well developed or simply enthusiastic, as long as you
love wine, our tours will delight.
