Discover the stories, landscapes and personalities that define Central Otago wine in this guided tasting experience with a focus on Kinross’ own white and rosé wines. Enjoy a curated tasting of Kinross Pinot Noir Blanc de Noirs, Central Otago Pinot Noir Rosé, Pinot Gris, Gewürztraminer and Chardonnay.

As you taste, you’ll hear the stories of the pioneers who first recognised the potential of this dramatic landscape, the makers who work the vineyards today, and the owners who continue to shape the future of Central Otago wine. At Kinross, we believe the secret is in the dirt.

Learn how soil types, elevation, climate and aspect influence flavour, texture and aroma. This is your chance to understand terroir not as a buzzword, but as something you can genuinely taste.

Kinross has been named the winner of the inaugural Qualmark New Zealand Wine Tourism Award 2024, recognising our experiences as the best in the country. Our talented Wine Advisors are the characters of Kinross, bringing warmth, insight and storytelling to every tasting. 

This is far more than a ‘splash and dash’ tasting. Expect depth, conversation and discovery, including rare and exclusive wines you won’t find on the supermarket shelf.

A welcoming, informative introduction to Central Otago whites and rosé – perfect whether you’re new to the region or keen to deepen your understanding.
