The Marlborough wine region in New Zealand's South Island is home to over 50 excellent wineries, many of which are walkable or cyclable from the town of Blenheim. The region is famous for its Sauvignon Blanc, with brands such as Villa Maria, Wither Hills, Forrest, Dog Point, and Cloudy Bay wines. However, Marlborough also offers more complex variations, including pinot gris, chardonnay, and blends, as well as excellent pinot noir reds and sparkling wines. The region is a perfect destination for wine tasting, walking, and scenic views. Depot will be serving a selection of seven Marlborough wines, introduced by wine enthusiast Robert Senior, Depot Chair of Trustees.
