Reviewed By 367lyndals - Christchurch, New Zealand

We visited this boutique cellar door on our wine tour & were delighted with a lovely warm reception by the family dogs & owner who told us the lovely story of how their family became vintners & conception of the cellars name. We enjoyed some beautiful wines & ended up purchasing a bottle of Rose to enjoy later. A lovely way to spend an afternoon.

I love Framingham wines and have always loved their riesling - so I chose all their rieslings and they even pulled out an amazing sticky from 2007. The staff were fantastic and really looked after that and even gave my wife a cap for her birthday. Really beautiful setting with cool art space below. A definite must on any wine tour

Forrest Wines Cellar Door

Our Marlborough winery and tasting room are nestled in amongst our vineyards in the heart of Sauvignon Blanc country just outside of the town of Renwick, 10km from Blenheim. At the entrance to Forrest wines stands a prominent stone wall built of the very stones that come from the surrounding area of the Wairau Valley. Beyond the wall the drive way winds through our oldest Sauvignon Blanc vineyard, over the small stone bridge and into a beautiful park setting, with willow trees and a duck pond, picnic tables and outdoor games for the whole family. The atmosphere is relaxed and family-friendly, with toys for children of all ages. You may even catch a glimpse of Frankie the family dog, she is so welcoming. The tasting room has a casual kiwi feel with comfortable seating in and out, and bean bags to enjoy a lounge in the sun. An eclectic range of wines from the innovative Doctors' range and the quintessential Forrest Marlborough range are on offer - a chance to taste a couple of your favourites or be adventurous and try a tasting tray with your choice of six wines for $7. We pride ourselves on providing informative discussions about our wines, winemaking and our region. A selection of different food platters are available, or bring your own picnic. We run a Winetasting 101 Masterclass daily (by appointment) at 1030 for $25 pp if you are want to get an overview of wine. Open 7 days 10am-4.30pm. Closed on Christmas Day, Easter Good Friday, the morning of ANZAC Day - 25 April and Marlborough Anniversary Day in October. Marlborough has one of the world’s greatest wine trails: fabulous wine, breathtaking scenery, a warm climate and relaxed people clustered in one small grape growing region (approximately 14 x 7 kilometres). More than fifty wineries offer a variety of wine, food and entertainment. You can either drive, take a guided bus tour, or hire a bicycle and pedal your way around the vineyards.

This was the first winery we visited over three days spent in Marlborough and what an excellent stop it was! We were warmly welcomed by Becky who was very knowledgeable about the wines and we enjoyed sharing the free tasting of two tastes per person or alternatively you can have a tasting tray of 7 for $10, which is very fair. The highlight was tasting their riesling from 2010, The Valleys Brancott riesling that in hindsight, we should have bought...but unfortunately, when travelling, you can't buy every bottle you like! Definitely worth a visit!

Gibson Bridge Vineyard

Reviewed By susanjlowe - Castor Bay, New Zealand

Cute little Cellar Door, we are so glad we visited. A small family run winery, the owner Julie did our tasting and she was so passionate and enthusiastic about the work they do, a wine made with love and care for sure! A full tasting experience for only $5 per person which was waived when we bought a bottle of their 2020 Pinot Gris which was delicious. I would highly recommend.

Jackson Estate Cellar Door and Winery

Tasting room in the heart of the Marlborough wine region and nestled in our Homestead Vineyard. Fruit from this vineyard delivers intense notes of stone fruit, white melon and tropical characters. The combination of mature vines with the stony free draining silt loam soils have been the foundations for the elegant textural wine style that Jackson Estate is best known for.
