Introducing the enomatic wine tasting system 

Wine tasting has undergone a revolution at Scenic Cellars with their new Enomatic Wine Tasting systems (pictured above) - the second retailer in the southern hemisphere to offer this exciting experience. Thirty-two wines are available to taste daily; sample iconic New Zealand varieties or the best of our International selection. Simply choose the wine and how much you want to spend. This enables you to create your own tasting experience: sampling the wines you want, to the budget of your choice.

All this, available on the lakefront Taupo with stunning views to the mountains beyond. Truly the wine experience of the Central Plateau.

Specialty wine shops, wonderful deli style goodies, cellar door wine tasting venues, outlets for liquor of all kinds, are the options Taupo has available. Many of our specialty suppliers make up hampers and gift baskets to order. Take a look at the delectable delights on offer, on-line or over the counter. Delicious! 

All prices subject to change. Seasonal rates may apply.
