New Zealand 2023, discover a new wine country – the newest? – full of pioneering spirit

Share/like this post:

New Zealand is a country that is influenced almost everywhere by its proximity to the sea. Most of the wine regions are located by the sea, on the eastern side of both the North and the South Island.

We will go to both islands on our tour that crosses almost the entire country (but not quite). Between vineyard and winery visits, wine tastings and delicious meals, we will experience the magnificent nature of the country.

New Zealand really is a new wine country, and you notice it. There is a certain pioneering spirit and a joy of discovery here. It wasn’t until 1973 that the first sauvignon blanc vines were planted in Marlborough. Sauvignon blanc wines quickly became popular, and they still are.

But we will highlight many more wines, such as cabernet sauvignon from Waiheke Island, syrah from Hawke’s Bay, pinot noir from Central Otago and Wairarapa.

During just over two weeks, we will get to know several of the New Zealand wine regions. A wine adventure, far away from everything.

Join us in New Zealand and discover something new.

The New Zealand wine tour, a great adventure.
