Marathon Downs has been in the family for over 120 years. They started as share croppers, before receiving the farm in the ballot. Farming sheep, beef and arable crops. Producing wine, is a stamp of the fourth generation of this amazing family!

Marathon Downs make small batch, minimal intervention wines from the Awatere Valley, Marlborough.
Their grapes are all family farmed.
And their goal is make honest wines that express the rawness of the Awatere Valley and bring people together.

A fun , spritzy , refreshing wine! A real quaffer on a hot summers day . 

Made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc , hand picked from ‘Racecourse Block’ , barrel fermented and finished in bottle.
