About This Tour
We offer the wine enthusiast an elevated wine touring experience with a WSET3 qualified guide. Your tour can be customized but will normally include visits to five of the most famous Martinborough wineries where you will not simply taste wine but will learn about their history and wine-making philosophy with qualified staff, tasting some of the flagship wines and visiting some of the winery facilities such as the barrel room where you may taste wines in barrel. Lunch will be included, usually at one of the wineries. We will make contact with you at least one week before your tour where booking time allows to understand your wine interests and customize the tour accordingly. Individuals may book this tour with a NZ$50 surcharge.
