Wine Tastings
Gisborne is the third largest grape growing region in New Zealand and produces and extensive range of wine varietals and blends.
Available exclusively at the Gisborne Wine Centre, you can taste ten different local wines via two flights. Each flight of five wines costs just $12, and gives you a fascinating glimpse into Gisborne's most interesting and premium wines.
Not all wineries have cellar doors, so the tasting flights provide an excellent opportunity to taste their latest offerings. Follow the detailed tasting notes, or put your nose and palate to the test and see what you can identify.
The tasting flight selection changes every week.
