Cromwell Wine Tasting Tour using Classic Car

Travel through Central Otago Scenery on a small group wine tour that keeps the day personal and unhurried. Qualmark Accredited Cromwell Classic Car Wine Tours is designed for two to four friends, family members, or associates, with travel in a Classic Mercedes 300SE rather than a crowded mini bus.

The focus is the Cromwell Basin, a key wine-growing area within Central Otago. While many bottles simply say Central Otago, this tour highlights the Cromwell Basin’s own identity and its strong concentration of vineyards and wineries, with more than 40 noted in the region. As you move through the area, you will spend the day visiting vineyards and tasting wines that have made the region well known.

Expect a close look at the styles produced from vines grown in the schist soils of the Cromwell Basin. Pinot Noir is the best known, and the tasting experience may also include Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, and other varieties produced here. The combination of Central Otago Scenery, vineyard visits, and travel in a classic car gives the day a distinctive pace, with the emphasis on the wines and the setting that shapes them.
