Start your day being met by the helicopter company at your Queenstown accommodation and enjoy a scenic helicopter flight taking you right across the Gibbston wine region and its vines below. Throughout the flight, we will land on a mountaintop for a glass of bubbles (sparkling wine).

The first stop of the day is at the iconic Gibbston Valley Winery. Gibbston Valley is one of the region's founding wineries and it's here that we will join a guided tour through New Zealand's largest underground wine cave and enjoy tastings of some of their world-famous wines.

Kinross is our second stop and a fantastic location to try a range of different wines across multiple labels. Along with producing their own wines, their cellar door host will also showcase wines from smaller producers and share their incredible stories of how they came to be. After your wine tasting, we allow extra time to enjoy lunch. Kinross has a range of delicious dishes on its menu, including pizzas, platters, smaller bites, and mains. This is ordered and paid directly on the day, giving you the flexibility to order what you would like based on your taste and budget.

Mt Rosa is a boutique owner-operated winery and their stunning location is situated just below the impressive Nevis Bluff. Sitting in the vines, their newly built cellar door building gives you a sophisticated backdrop to a delicious tasting menu. Their cellar door host will take you through different varieties of their single-label wines. Their mulled wine is a customer highlight!

We finish our tasting tour at our fourth stop Ayrburn, where you’ll enjoy a self-guided wine flight in the charming Manure Room or outdoors (weather-dependent), surrounded by beautiful historic grounds - truly a Queenstown must-see destination.
