About Blenheim
Blenheim is the main town of Marlborough, at the top of New Zealand's South Island, among Sauvignon Blanc vineyards and near the Marlborough Sounds.
Blenheim sits on the flat Wairau Plain at the top of the South Island, in the heart of Marlborough, New Zealand's largest wine region. Rows of vines run to the foot of the dry Wither Hills, and the town itself is small and green, with parks such as Pollard Park and Seymour Square and a river walk beside the Taylor.
