Good Wine Hunting

Nicole and I spent a lovely three days tasting wine, making fires, chasing sheep and cooking food. Nicole loved buying good quality wine at bottle shop prices and sleeping in! I really liked the impromptu tour we got of the Iron Gate Estate by the winemaker himself!  Apparently we made his day asking proper questions and tasting his wine after his busy day with people basically going around the the wineries getting drunk for free. He was one of only three winemakers that present his wines in the valley and was very proud of his aged semillion in particular in which the valley is famous for. It was great to hang out with Nicole's friends. Unfortunately one couple couldn't come as they got food poisoning which was sad, but our group a six was pretty cosy :)













We can't wait to go again, beautiful scenery and so relaxing.
