Group tickets are now on sale for Toast Martinborough 2019 - celebrating New Zealand’s most iconic wine region, combining the very best wine, food and music all set amongst the vines that inspire it all.
Toast Martinborough General Manager, Anna Nielson said the 28th annual Toast was guaranteed to take festivalgoers to the very heart of the Martinborough wine community’s devotion to its craft.
