I love NZ wine. (I'm obviously biased of course coming from NZ). Gibbston Valley Wines have a nice selection to choose from. We didn't realise that you can eat here otherwise we should have definitely stopped over for lunch as well. More

We stopped in here on the way back from Wanaka. Had a late lunch at the cheesery and it was great. Also bought some (vacuum packed) cheese to take home to Australia. We popped in next door to the winery and a few of our party had some tastings there as well. Very enjoyable stop More
