New Zealand is a young wine country, it shows in many ways. The producers still have a feeling of being pioneers who experiment with different grape varieties (New Zealand is not only sauvignon blanc!) and different wine styles.
The modern wine industry did not develop until the 1970s. For a long time, the müller-thurgau grape dominated the vineyards; this is hard to imagine today when we enjoy pinot noir, riesling, cabernet sauvignon, syrah and of course sauvignon blanc from this island country where the winds from the see affect almost all the vineyards.
We will go from Auckland on the North Island down to Queensland on the South Island. We travel by bus all the way, an extraordinary way to see and enjoy as much of the country as possible. We visit around 20 wineries, but we also have time for some sightseeing. There will be geysers, kiwi birds (but bear in mind, they are very shy), glaciers, picturesque villages, the Maori culture and some more.
Join us for a great wine, nature and culture experience on the New Zealand wine tour.
