48 food-filled hours in the Wairarapa

The picturesque Olivo olive grove in Martinborough.

Just a short hop over that rather large hill from Wellington is the Wairarapa – a region well-known for its pinot noir, and one that boasts about its artisan food producers and restaurants. So while in the capital recently, I thought it would be rude not to nip across and take a look.

And one artisan food which keeps being mentioned … olive oil!
