Martinborough is the name of a small town in the Wairarapa, a region at the southeast of the North Island of New Zealand. It is located 65 kilometres east of Wellington and 35 kilometres southwest of Masterton. The town has a population of a little over 10,000.
The area around Martinborough has a large number of vineyards producing wines such as pinot noirs. During December, these are celebrated in the Taste of Martinborough festival. This event, one of Wellington's annual social highlights, temporarily doubles the town's population.
