Sipping a fine Nelson wine is one of life’s
exquisite pleasures.
In Nelson, winemaking is celebrated as an art, which is why their boutique wine makers have been winning the hearts and minds of discerning wine lovers the world over, and attracting more than their fair share of prestigious international awards for Pinot Nor, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling and Pinot Gris.
To discover the essence of Nelson's vibrant wine industry, one must journey into the heart of the countryside . . . meet winemakers at their cellar doors, bask in the sunshine, dine among the vines, select a bottle or two, taste . . . explore . . . imbibe.
Celebrate the art of wine making, the passions and the pleasures, among the picturesque hills and plains
of Nelson.
simply unforgettable!
