Another Stunning Success for Toast Martinborough
Wine and food lovers from around the country enjoyed another great day out at this year’s Toast Martinborough Wine Food and Music Festival.
Despite windy conditions, organisers say the mood was sunny and upbeat as festival goers sampled award-winning wines and culinary delights made from local produce, while being entertained by some of the country’s best live performers.
Toast Martinborough General Manager Rachael Fletcher reported that seafood and game were particularly popular this year, with festival goers tempted by delicacies such as Virgin Mary oyster shots and whitebait and king crab fritters, along with duck confit and porcini ravioli and venison kebabs.
“Once again the festival has lived up to its reputation of providing the perfect setting for enjoying fine wines, fabulous food, live entertainment and the company of friends – all within picturesque surroundings. It’s no wonder that so many festival goers return to Toast Martinborough year after year,” Rachael Fletcher said.
Tickets to this year’s event were again in high demand, with tickets selling out in just 13 minutes.
