Rotorua Wine Tasting
Volcanic Hills Tasting Room – Skyline Rotorua
Come enjoy a wine tasting and soak up the magnificent view overlooking Rotorua town & lake, or just relax with a glass of wine and something to eat.
Our tasting room sits at the top of the gondola at Skyline Rotorua.
Come and enjoy a wine tasting and chat about all things wine.
Our wine tastings are a little different, we won’t bamboozle you with confusing jargon, but focus on what you enjoy in a wine and why. Everyone’s relationship with wine is different and we love hearing your stories, experiences and history.

The Volcanic Hills Winery is located at the base of Mount Ngongotaha, where the Skyline Gondola begins.
This is where we bring all our grapes back from vineyards in Marlborough, Hawkes Bay, Central Otago and Gisborne and turn them into delicious wine.
The winery (at the bottom of the gondola) is generally open by appointment only so please get in touch if you wish to come in – but if we are there feel free to pop in and say hi!
Corporate Wine Tastings
We can host a variety of events for you, either at our place or yours.
