Wineries and cellar doors in Queenstown: about this list
Nestled in the heart of the world’s southernmost wine region, Queenstown is a paradise for wine lovers. With wineries within a 20-minute drive and more just 40 minutes away, exceptional wine experiences are always close at hand. Savour some of the world’s finest Pinot Noir, then indulge in a winery lunch crafted by talented local chefs. Whether you prefer fine dining at an award-winning winery restaurant, a casual woodfired pizza, or a picnic of local cheese and wine among the vines, Queenstown’s vineyards offer something for every taste.
Every winery listed with Destination Queenstown. Most are in Gibbston, with others in Frankton and Lake Hayes, and Arrowtown. Also on this page: a wine tour.
Gibbston is part of Queenstown for this guide, so its cellar doors are listed here with those around Lake Hayes, Arrowtown and town. Cromwell and Bannockburn are outside the district and not covered.
Planning a day of tastings? The wine day guide covers which cellar doors take walk-ins, which to book, and how to get there without driving.
Getting there is part of the plan: Queenstown wine tours sets out each way to do a wine day, from guided tours and bikes to shuttles and self-drive, with the operators for each.
