Wine Show The 2021
Marlborough Wine Show, sponsored by QuayConnect, was certainly a celebration of provenance, with trophies awarded within the vineyards, wineries and cellar doors the winning wines hailed from.

Wine Works
With up to 100,000 cases of wine ordered in a single day – double the typical expectation – WineWorks has been under the pump to get domestic and international deliveries out the door.

Labour Survey
Of the seasonal workers recruited for Marlborough’s 2022 vintage, 43% have no experience, 31% are returnees, and only 26% have more than one year’s vintage experience behind them.
