Around the wineries #5

Most of our wineries are smaller family affairs. The tasting rooms are usually quite uncomplicated, the wine varieties are usually limited to about 10, but you do often get to chat to the winemaker!

Fabulous experience and capture! I watched an episode of Brokenwood Mysteries on PBS recently about a couple of wineries down under. I read that it's filmed in New Zealand.

Now that's an inviting line up!

I love those kinds of wineries. That is usually the kind we have closer to home. Other parts of California have the big name wines that are far less personal. I love the image of the bar outside.

Super presentation

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I think the smaller more family oriented intimate wineries are nicer too. That's what we've got around here as well. So, did you polish all these off one by one?

[Babs]

They look like sentries on duty.

[Paula Fontanini]

Fantastic shot with the bottles all lined up. Sounds like it would be a great way to spend an afternoon!! :)

Fabulous shot of this great looking line up, hope they taste as good as they look. I actually only drink Chenin blanc or Sauvignon blanc ;-)

[Wylie]

a terrific line up!

[Dione Giorgio]

Beautiful line up. Merlot is normally my choice but I will drink any type if there is no choice.

Hi everyone. Thanks for your comments and interest. It sounds like many of you would probably love this area - there are so many different types of grapes grown and so many interesting wines made. The area is quite heavily influenced by its Italian heritage. They actually produce what they call a "Strange Bird" series of wines with types such as Pinotage, Petit Verdot, Vermentino, Tempranillo, Vignier, Fiano, Malvasia, Nebbiola, Nero D'avolo, Saperavi, and Durif. It is though very easy to buy too much wine! Cheers Rob.
