Review of Gibbston Valley Wines

Big winery in Central Otago which offers wide rang...

Big winery in Central Otago which offers wide range of wines, starting from Resling, Pilot Gris up to Pinot Noir. Wine tasting costs $5 for 3 bottles up to $15 for more bottles. Friendly staffs. The wine quality is good, however nothing spectacular in term of taste. The Riesling is almost one of the weakest, taste more like German sour Riesling wine rather than beautiful New Zealand flowery Riesling with full characters and body. Bottle wine prices are relatively expensive and not worth for the money in comparison to other wineries such as Black Ridge with its exclusive wine tastes. The winery has a restaurant and the food is very good. Worth to try out, except beware of 15% surcharge for national holiday.
