with local delicacies of New Zealand Salmon, local Green-lip mussel, cheeses
and herbs accompanied within dips and pates, delicious salami meats and tasty
crackers and more. Minimum of 2 and Maximum of 8.
You will have a choice of your favourite wine style before you confirm your
booking.
Sauvignon Blanc
- the famous label here in Marlborough who boast being the largest export
of wine from New Zealand.
Chardonnay
- you will find them light and less oaky mostly here and converts happen
every day.
Pinot Gris
- this can be for everyone as it is middle of the road happy style and
less sweet than a Pinot Grigio (both same grape but different soils and picked
at different times.
Riesling
- Marlborough is the home of special styles from dry, medium to superb sweet
that go so well on your ice'cream. You can try it.
Pinot Noir
- Marlborough is well known for the Pinot Noir styles grown in the Southern
Valley. Lighter than maybe you are used to but experience this as a new taste
varietal. Wonderful with Salmon.
Your picnic venue can vary, the Wairau Plains is a perfect scenic
journey no matter which direction and either a landscaped winery in the garden
or botanical garden, or by the ocean (Pacific Ocean).
If the weather is a little off-beat you can enjoy your experience indoors.
During October through to March Marlborough surely has the highest sunshine
hours.
Included is also a separate wine tasting stop for Methode Traditionelle
(our ‘champagne’ making experts) who have created a chocolate match for each of
three styles you can taste.
