Thank you Lisa, I am so pleased that you had a good day.
John Penney of Wineinsights is very knowledgeable about the industry, and he ensured that I had the best time during my private wine tour in Martinborough. I will definitely be in contact with him if I am ever back in the North Island on holiday.

Awesome, so glad you enjoyed it Shawn and if you do return I will have some great new experiences & wines lined up!
We had a memorable day out and about Martinborough with John. Visited a number of wineries and tasted a wide range of fantastic local wines. John knows his stuff - his knowledge of wines is superb and chatting to the winemakers made it a standout experience. Highly recommend a private tour with John @wineinsights.

Thanks Gus! Look forward to our tasting together in Sicily!
I highly recommend this wine tour with John and would do it again. He had the perfect balance of wineries, behind the scenes barrel room tasting and a lovely lunch. He is very knowledgeable on the history of Martinborough and the wines/ wineries, plus an extensive interesting wine knowledge in general. He is also easy, unrushed and good to chat with. This was an exceptional day.

I've had the pleasure of attending a number of John's tastings and the quality of the wines he presents are exceptional. The wines, plus John's depth of knowledge, make him a truly memorable host and educator. I'd recommend him to anyone looking to increase their wine knowledge.

Thanks Graeme for your kind words
Just book this tour. Don’t think about. If you’re in Martinborough for a few days definitely take this tour your first day.
John, is amazing. Extremely knowledgeable, informative and a perfect guide for a town this intimate. My wife and I had an amazing time enjoying private tastings, gaining vineyard info from the growers themselves all while being chauffeured around. You’ll waste a day trying to gain the info John has about the wineries all while never experiencing his in depth understanding of the area, growers, and bonus food guide.
This tour has grown my love for wine, traveling and people.
The best part is John is local. You are supporting a professional in their hometown, what could be better.
It’s worth the price, 10 times over.
