Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc Wine Region, New Zealand Travel Video Guide
According to British Wine Expert Oz Clarke, the Marlborough wine region is 'one of the the greatest places on earth to grow vines, producing some of the world's most remarkable wines.' World renown for it's Sauvignon Blanc, the region also produces fine Pinot Noir, Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay.
I interview Maverick businessman, Peter Yealands who runs Yealands Estate, a 1,000 Hectare winery that has been hailed the most sustainable winery in the world. Yealands has introduced some innovative sustainable practices in their vineyard, such as grazing miniature 'babydoll' sheep, instead of using mowing equipment, and developing a biodegradable plastic bottle.
I learn about why the Marlborough region produces such fantastic wine and also get Peter's top three tips for running a successful business.

Days 19 & 20: Marlborough Wine Country! New Zealand's most famous wine region by drone!
Today, I visited the home of my favourite wine - New Zealand's Marlborough wine region on the South Island. In addition to the beautiful wines (especially its distinct passionfruity Sauvignon Blanc), the scenery is truly spectacular - the valley is surrounded by mountains and there are endless symmetrical rows of vines.
I stayed in an Airbnb in Blenheim (the centre of the region) and visited Brancott Estate, Highfield Terravin, and Rock Ferry. I was told to visit Cloudy Bay but didn't have time.
Check out the footage by drone!

Tour TravelEssence has sixty Dutch out of the New Zealand Kaikoura. The earthquake last weekend, the only access road to the coastal village impassable and tourists stuck. The company has hired a plane, because assistance from the New Zealand navy still in gestation.
The tour company picks up the Dutch who have booked them in groups of eight or nine people. They are all expected to have picked up today. After that they travel to Blenheim and Wellington.
airstrip
Actually, the Dutch had to wait for the arrival of the Navy, but that could take a few days. That takes us too long and that is why we have hired a plane, said a spokesman for TravelEssence.
Kaikoura was killed by the earthquake. A runway instead got hardly damaged by the quake and is now being used to rescue the tourists. In the coastal village stay more than 1,200 tourists, including so sixty Dutch.
