The region's soil types, abundant sunshine, long autumns and crisp, cool winters have proved to be the ingredients needed to produce world class wines. One of the most popular ways to see and sample what Marlborough has to offer is a wine trail, which might also encompass boutique breweries, olive groves and distilleries.
There are a variety of operators able to tailor a trail to your tastes. Many of the wineries have restaurant/café facilities on site—an ideal opportunity to experience alfresco dining amongst the vines.
