An hour north of Christchurch you will find the Waipara wine region, consisting of more than 75 vineyards and 30,000 acres of grape vines. It is one of New Zealand's fastest-growing wine regions. Waipara's wineries are internationally renowned for producing Pinot Noirs, Pinot Gris, Rieslings, Chardonnays and Sauvignon Blancs. The region's long hot autumns provide each vineyard with fruit-forward characteristics that contribute to a range of wine styles.
You will visit three different wineries and taste many different varietals.
Enjoy a platter-style lunch at one of the wineries.
Your driver-guide provides an interesting and informative commentary, introducing you to one of New Zealand's most prestigious wine regions.
