The predominant wines here are reds, which suited Janet and Phil and Allan, but I tried some lovely Rieslings. It is a lovely area and our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable, so all in all, a great day. And the weather held!

Barossa Valley
It was a very early start today (Tuesday) as we joined a bus tour of the Barossa Valley. There were 15 of us – the rest were all Aussies, but we’ve had a great time. We visited 5 vineyards, all quite different, but all interesting. We went to Wolf Blass where the other three all sampled shirazes that sell for $350 per bottle. We had lunch at a lovely place which would make an exquisite wedding venue, and another highlight was the Langmeil vineyard, which had some vines which were 160 years old.
