Toast Martinborough features in a Guardian overview of the world’s greatest wine festivals. “Martinborough is one of the few ‘old world’ wine villages in the southern hemisphere and home to much- lauded pinot noir and sauvignon blanc. Its population swells tenfold in November, when visitors glide, and later stagger, between neighbouring vineyards, high on a diet of rare older vintages matched with food devised by chefs from Wellington’s finest eateries.”
