Marlborough is about world famous Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand's largest winegrowing region, and the soils and enviable climate that create it. It's about fresh seafood sought by the world's finest chefs. It's about diverse landscapes, from valleys of vines to sheltered waterways of the Marlborough Sounds.
It was named for John Churchill, first Duke of Marlborough, whose Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire, England, was a gift to him from Queen Anne. Marlborough is a unitary authority, both a district and a region. Marlborough District Council is based at Blenheim, the largest town.
The Marlborough region of New Zealand has its founding day, called “Marlborough Anniversary Day”, on the first Monday following Labour Day. Commemoration means marking an important historical event on or around a meaningful anniversary.
