MARLBOROUGH
At the north eastern tip of the South Island, Marlborough is probably the best known of New Zealand's wine growing areas, largely down to the rise to fame of Cloudy Bay in the mid 1980s. Vines are grown in a wide river valley, that has a number of different soil types, from shallow, stony soils to areas covered in large surface boulders. Sauvignon Blanc is the most common variety, follwed by Chardonnay, but other varieties such as Riesling and Pinot Noir are also grown successfully.
