The tour guide, Paddy, was excellent! The wineries were great and set in lovely locations, and the food was delicious. Overall, it was a wonderful outing. Paddy shared with everyone on the bus his wealth of knowledge concerning wine: varietals, the impact of weather and soil types, different production and aging techniques, and many other factors. All this information he delivered in a casual, amenable way that left us feeling that we understood and appreciated wine more at the end. Thank you Paddy.

Although I do not actually like wine! I thoroughly enjoyed the experience this tour provided. Our driver was amazing and informative, and the guides were professional, entertaining, and, passionate about their craft. What I liked most was the knowledge that was imparted to us. I walked away with a newfound respect for these boutique wine growers and the many awards they have won in the world wine-growing arena. Nothing shy of spectacular. It was a great opportunity to meet others from around the globe. The luncheon was pleasant the scenery gorgeous. I thought the cost was reasonable for a great afternoon out with friends.

Really fun wine tour with Angus. The drive to the wineries was informative Re: scenery and history. The wineries chosen were varied enough. Lunch was light but excellent and included pairings. We learned a lot from the guides at each vineyard but also Angus has a wealth of knowledge from living in France as well. Really great day - and a nice relaxing activity to do while in Queenstown-Wakatipu!
