Waterfront   to     Wineries

The Gourmet tour

Pick up from your apartment at approx. 10.30am

It offers you an insight in to the magic of wine, food and olives in an interesting, enjoyable and fun way.

Your first vineyard tour starts at Nautilus Winery, which is a family owned company, established in 1985. It is home to premier wines of the region, including world class Methode Tradionelle and Pinot Noir. Specifically set up for Pinot Noir, you will spend time in production, and the tank room, before sampling their wines.

Arrive at Grove Mill where sensory experiences abound. Smell the bouquets common to Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc with a unique Aroma Demonstration. Taste fine wines matched with tasty morsels and see the different grapes growing in Grove Mill's unique Vine Library. You even get the opportunity to view the wonderful art at the Grove Mill gallery.

Your lunch is at the picturesque Cellier Le Brun where you will visit their underground cellar before dining on a gourmet 5 course wine matched lunch - and what a taste sensation. You will sample both the Daniel Le Brun and Terrace Road labels, with a discount of 5% offered on any wine purchased. NB. Any allergies - please notify at time of booking.

Your tour ends at Johanneshof visit underground cellars resonating to the echoes of bygone centuries through which the modern winemaking craft has evolved. Here vintage harvests rest and mature 20 metres below ground, in New Zealand's first rock cellar.

The Gourmet Wine Experience is personalised in such a way that it is truly the ultimate experience for anyone who takes their fun with food and wine at all seriously. At day's end you will have an enhanced understanding that will heighten every wining dining experience from here on. And of course, memories that will endure for a lifetime.
