We did a full day wine tasting tour with Na Clachan yesterday and I couldn’t recommend it enough. Our guide (Bill) picked us up from our air B and B in Picton and was just the most lovely, interesting man. He took us to small boutique wineries and even took requests. We went to the Alan Scott winery for lunch (between $25-$30 a head, amazing food and a beautiful restaurant) while waiting for lunch we had another tasting after lunch we went to 4 more wineries. Our group was only 6 persons so it felt like we were on a private tour and the support of the smaller vineyards was great to see (everyone’s on a first name basis) Highly recommended if you’re in the area!!!! Thank you so much.

We wanted a half day wine tour from Picton & Na Clachan suited us fine.
We were picked up on time & transported to Blenheim where we met the rest of our group. There were 8 of us from
different parts of the world…a lovely bunch. Phil was our awesome guide. We had a lovely lunch & wine tasting at Allan Scott & then went on to Nautilus, Bladen, No. 1 and Saint Clair with a stop at Makana Confections.We highly recommend Na Clachan for a relaxed fun & informative wine tasting. Thanks so much!

This is when a 6th star would be useful. Total staff is around 3 people, very attentive from the booking time to the final drop-off. This is a small operation that prefers to take small groups of tasters to small wineries (the Na Clachan bus is an 11-passenger van). Reviews do rave about Helen as a guide, probably appropriately: she is very nice and clearly knowledgeable. Our guide, Chris, was excellent and also ready to express his own opinions (just ask him what was the bubbly at his daughter’s wedding!). Very highly
recommended.
