Situated east of Queenstown along the spectacular Kawarau Gorge, Gibbston hasn’t looked back since the first commercial bottling in 1987. The highest sub-region, it’s cooler climate and north-facing hillside vines ripen later than neighbouring sub-regions, giving lighter though still intense wines.
We have hand picked our favourite wineries in the region, so sit back and relax in our Mercedes Sprinter vans, for an unforgettable trip with our local and friendly guides.
