Martinborough

Oh Martinborough, you beauty! A short yet slightly terrifying drive up the winding mountain pass from Wellington (via a pit stop to see Rivendell) to this small pocket of NZ’s wine country.

Home to small, locally run vineyards - we had a bite to eat in town before an afternoon of wine tasting. Sampling some lovely Riesling, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and learning about Martinborough’s wine making heritage.

An evening meal in our hotel was the perfect end to a lovely sunny day.Læs mere
