What better place in the world to experience fine Central Otago wine than the magnificent South Island of New Zealand staying at Release Private Retreat.

The Central Otago region is regarded as one of the most spectacular settings in the world for the many vineyards and wineries, framed by rugged mountains and deep river gorges. The region is celebrated for its pinot noir and pinot gris and produces many world class wines.

The locality on the 45th parallel is proving a prime pinot noir growing spot for Pisa Range Estate producing many trophy winning wines. Felton Road's philosophy is to let the fruit speak for itself: gentle handling and as little intervention as possible has produced some delightful Rieslings and unoaked Chardonnays. With vineyards across the Central Otago region, Valli produces two pinot noirs with the aim to produce single vineyard premium pinot noirs to highlight the differences in Otago's sub-regions.

A selection of quality wines from these vineyards is available at Release.

For the ultimate wine tasting experience, a local sommelier will provide you with a personal tasting session at Release. Sample a select range of local wines from Release's climate controlled cabinets, including many of Central Otago's boutique wines.
