The Tasting Room

Available 1:30pm – 4:30pm, All days we are open

Our doors are open to our Tasting Room and Bar and we would love you to come and visit us for a wine tasting. Or simply enjoy a glass of wine or beer overlooking the spectacular silver birches and vineyard.

There is a gorgeous outdoor area to sun yourself or hide under the shade of the trees. We also have picnic blankets for you to borrow and lay in the lush green grass sipping on a Pinot and contemplating life as we know it.

How about something to nibble on…there are platters, pizzas and corn chips with salsa.

Wine Tasting Notes

Our tastings will include a sampling of our favourite wines at the moment. Depending on the season and our inventory, we may offer tastings of our vintage collection as well as from recent harvests.

Our wine tasting includes four different wines.
A fee of $20 applies. 

Don’t worry, you’ll always get to sample our Central Otago Pinot Noir!

As always, please don’t drink and drive. We can help call a taxi service for you if needed.

Everyone is welcome, and we look forward to meeting you.
