Marborough Weekend

19 05 2009

Headed off to Blenheim for a mate’s 50th recently – great weekend with a few wineries visited (When in Rome…!) Tastings at Wither Hills, Highfield Estate, Lunch and tastings at Drylands and Bouldevines, dinner at Bacchus.

Visited Peter Yealands new $25 Million winery nestled in 1000 hectares of vines east of Seddon and tasted the first vintage (2008) excellent wines and prices. Fantastic venue and heading towards full sustainability. You have to visit this winery – my hat’s off to them for an outstanding acomplishment.
