Taking you through the entire winemaking process from vineyard to winery, this Marlborough Tour Company experience is ideal if you are looking for Blenheim wine tours with a difference. Enjoy an exclusive tour of Framingham wines, a tutorial on blending your very own Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc and a private wine tasting with local cheeseboard.

Your Blend Premium Winemaker Tour begins in Blenheim, with pick up by your friendly Marlborough Tour Company guide.
