Montauk to Martinborough


It's a good thing when our Montauk friends are visiting New Zealand and find time 
to check in on our vines at Stonecrop vineyard. 
Leo and Lacey are tramping (that's overnight hiking) champions! climbing every 
mountain, it would seem, on the South Island and the North Island.

These two intrepid cousins found the time to stop off in Martinborough. Located at the foot of New Zealand's North Island, Martinborough is a charming wine village home to a number of boutique vineyards, producing high quality wine on a small scale.

Stonecrop vineyard is located on the renowned Dry River Road, a short drive from Martinborough's village square - John Martin the founder of the hamlet had the streets radiate out from 
the square in the shape of the Union Jack.
