About
The Marlborough Wine Show reviews and assesses entries using panels of experienced judges and rewards top-performing wines with trophies, gold, silver and bronze medals. The show provides a relevant, credible platform for Marlborough producers to promote their wines and is also a celebration of excellence - not only of Marlborough wines, but the local industry as a whole.
The Marlborough Wine Show, sponsored by QuayConnect, is run by Wine Marlborough Ltd to champion excellence, provenance and promote diversity of wines grown in New Zealand’s largest wine region.
