Marlborough is New Zealand’s largest wine growing region and has an enviable international reputation for producing the best Sauvignon Blanc in the world.

Consider an alternative to the norm and head out of the Winelands to Hermanus. The more established vineyards of Hamilton Russell and Bouchard Finlayson are just a half hour's drive from Birkenhead House, but if you fancy something a bit more up and coming, head to Creation.
