This May, Marlborough’s world-famous Sauvignon Blanc takes centre stage with the launch of Sauv & Sip – a month-long celebration inviting locals and visitors alike to discover the region’s signature variety through a collection of exclusive cellar door tasting experiences.
Running throughout May, participating cellar doors across Marlborough will offer unique Sauvignon Blanc experiences for a special set price of $10, creating an inviting opportunity to discover the many expressions of the wine style that established Marlborough as a world-renowned wine destination.
No two experiences are the same. Guests can expect everything from classic guided tastings and limited-release pours, unexpected food pairings and the chance to compare subregional styles.
Fresh, vibrant and unmistakable, Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is celebrated worldwide for its bright acidity and expressive fruit character. Sauv & Sip offers the opportunity to experience it where it all begins – in the vineyards, tasting rooms and cellar doors of New Zealand’s leading wine region.
For Marlborough locals, Sauv & Sip is an opportunity to enjoy Marlborough’s cellar doors during the beautiful autumn season. Residents are encouraged to gather friends, plan a tasting trail and discover just how diverse Sauvignon Blanc can be.
For domestic and international travellers, May is an ideal time to visit Marlborough. Autumn colours, calm days and fewer crowds make for a memorable seasonal escape. Whether arriving by road, ferry, rail or air, visitors can pair a Sauv & Sip tasting journey with local dining, cycling, walks and Marlborough’s renowned hospitality.
Sauv & Sip runs throughout May at participating Marlborough cellar doors.
