    I’ve visited Queenstown many times and done many of the winery/vineyard tours in the area. Wet Jacket is hands-down the best experience I have had in the region. Our host (Jaime) was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and professional, and the venue itself was breathtakingly beautiful. Wet Jacket has such a rich history and it is incredibly well integrated into the experience. The wine itself delicious and I cannot wait to open the bottles we took home. My partner and I will be returning to Wet Jacket for sure.

    An interesting experience from start to end. Beautiful setting. Staff very much went through the motions with each course presented. One of the best courses were the plums which were presented in a bowl of plums from which we had to ‘forage’ to find the plums we were meant to eat, the bowl was then literally ‘whipped’ away by the waitress who told us the rest were for “display only”!! Please don’t do this to customers anymore! Maybe give customers a few plums to eat as they were so delicious. I would also urge you to serve a little treat with coffee - a tiny brownie or chocolate would have been welcome and requires no explanation!!

    Kinross - Valli tasting
    Terrific cellar door set up for a number of smaller wineries.
    Unlike others, the Kinross team represent 5 Central Otago including Valli, Cool Pit, Kinross, Wild Irishman in a detailed and professional manner.
    You’ll need a booking to taste.
    We were lucky to have the passionate and knowledgeable Eloise take us through the Valli range - 2 whites and 4 Pinot’s, describing the differences between the vineyards.
    Highly recommend a visit, for any of these wineries.

    The Three Miners cellar door is located in a lovely bar inside the Queenstown Hilton Resort and Spa in Kelvin Heights. It is just a short and inexpensive water taxi ride across the lake from the Queenstown wharf so you get to experience the lake as a bonus. The wines were fabulous and the charming wine maker Ngarita was on hand to ask all our questions and talk us through the tasting. It is a great way to taste excellent wines from Three Miners located in the Alexandra region and some other wineries local to that area, a bonus if you don’t have time to visit in person. Don’t miss this if you are a wine lover.

    The amount of available wines were impressive, and the tasting system quite sophisticated. We ordered cheese platter with the wine. Everything very good, but quite expensive. They even charged extra for a few gluten free biscuits.

    Garret gave us excellent service, very knowledgeable and entertaining. Would happily take friends and family back to Nockie’s thanks to this excellent service.

    I’m no expert in wine, but it was interesting to learn about the different wines from around different wineries throughout the regions of NZ.
