Spy Valley wins cellar door of the year!
Some of the comments included:
"The venue is impressive and the cellar door service is good, so it raises the overall perception of Marlborough wine as a quality brand and Marlborough as a premier wine destination for tourists and locals."
"This was a very friendly, helpful, cheerful and informative visit. I felt most welcome to this cellar door. The staff member was very pleasant, had great eye contact, a great smile and and 'managed' an older woman (me) and a younger female customer with ease."
"This was a very pleasant experience and exceeded my expectations. The staff member was friendly, attentive and informative. She was certainly enthusiastic about the wines and spoke with passion about them."
"I liked the wines, the staff, the building and it was a pleasant drive to get there. I felt most welcomed to the cellar door."
