About This Experience

New Zealand salmon, green-lip mussels, local cheeses and herbs, dips, pates, salami and crackers — an all-inclusive gourmet picnic laid out in the Marlborough landscape. Your venue might be a landscaped winery garden, a botanical garden or the edge of the Pacific Ocean; if the weather turns, the picnic simply moves indoors. You choose your wine style before you book: Marlborough's famous Sauvignon Blanc, a lighter, less-oaky Chardonnay, an easy-going Pinot Gris, Riesling from dry through to superbly sweet, or the Southern Valley's Pinot Noir — wonderful with salmon. Your Local Chauffeur meets you at the Picton Information Centre bus stop — timed for cruise ship arrivals into the port, though land travellers are just as welcome. Groups run from one to eight, so book privately or share the day and make new friends. • All-inclusive wine and gourmet picnic of local delicacies • A separate methode traditionnelle tasting stop, with a chocolate match for each of three styles • A stop at Makana Boutique Chocolate Confections before heading back • A scenic journey across the Wairau Plains with a passionate local owner as your guide
