We had such a lovely experience! Anna made our visit unforgettable — she was warm, attentive, and genuinely interested in what we liked. She listened to our preferences and recommended wines that matched us perfectly. Her service made us feel welcomed and cared for from start to finish. Great wines, beautiful atmosphere, and amazing service thanks to Anna. Highly recommended!

Stayed here for an anniversary weekend, and could not recommend it more. Kinross was the perfect balance of laid back and attentive, and we felt well looked after the whole time we were there. Situated amid the beautiful vineyards of the Gibbston Valley, you’re close to some of the best wineries the region has to offer (including the ones Kinross represent), and if you get them to sort e-bikes for you your options are even wider. Also their wine club is just about the best value club in NZ, just saying :)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such a fantastic experience at Kinross Winery! The food and wine were absolutely delicious, and the service was outstanding — everyone was so friendly and welcoming. Special mention to Rommel, Maria, and Stosh for their amazing service. Stosh even went out of his way to organise a little birthday dessert plate, which made the day extra special. Highly recommend Kinross for great wine, great food, and even better people! 🍷✨

🍷 Exceptional Wine Tasting with Francesco and Martial I’ve experienced many wine tastings over the years, but none compare to the ones hosted by Francesco and Martial. I came back on two separate occasions, and each time was absolutely outstanding. Their deep wine knowledge, warm hospitality, and ability to explain everything—from grape varieties to tasting techniques—made the experience truly unforgettable. As someone with a background in wine tasting, I can confidently say this was by far the best I’ve ever had. Every detail was thoughtfully curated, and their passion for wine shines through in every moment. If you’re looking for a wine experience that’s both educational and deeply enjoyable, this is it. Highly recommended!
