Waipara Valley
Wine Region Tour
Experience travelling with a Call Jeeves driver on our 'private' wine trail tour into the picturesque Waipara Valley winery region located north of Christchurch.
For your day in the Waipara Valley wine region we have chosen four high quality award winning wineries that enable the tasting of more than twenty different selected premium wine types. Included duting your visit is the opportunities of informative discussions about the regions wines and the manufacturing process.
The Waipara Valleys micro-climate conditions and its well drained soil facilitate the growing of a variety of grapes for many wine types of the Waipara region, that include Pinot Noir, Riesling, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Gris.
For your convenience and later enjoyment, cellar door sales are available at each of the wineries we visit.
Our wine tasting tour is a private no rush experience, that includes a relaxing time spent to enjoy an optional lunch during the winery visits. (lunch not included in tour cost)
Suggestions of a prebooked lunch, if required:
Lunch Menu - Waipara Springs Wines, Wineries & Cellar Doors - Fine Wines & Dining
Food - Torlesse Wines New Zealand
Ample time available to take in the views of the surrounding countryside, along with the beautifully maintained garden areas at some of the wineries.
Should one so desire, the day may conclude with a visit to a local craft beer brewing company where one may enjoy a cold New Zealand craft beer, or alternatively a coffee. The 'brewery' is often a refreshing stop popular with male group members after a day of wine tasting.
