Jade Tours is a local company, owned and operated by Bruce Thomas. Bruce is an industry insider, having established an award-winning organic vineyard and wine brand from the ground up. This experience gives him a rare depth of knowledge and connection to the vineyards and wineries you’ll visit.
Jade Tours specialises in small groups (minimum 2, maximum 10). We tour at a gentle pace, with plenty of time to talk with the producers and savour Marlborough’s world-class wine.
Jade Tours naturally gravitates to the region’s family-owned wineries that pioneered the Marlborough wine industry. We visit cellar doors that proudly offer the region’s world famous Sauvignon Blanc, and you’ll also taste their other award-winning varietals, including Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Riesling.
