Today we finally made it to our first winery (the whole purpose of this trip)! After our in motel breakfast we headed to the first vineyard, Clos Henri. It was run by a French family and we tried their range of Sav Blancs and Pinot Noirs.
The next vineyard was Brancott where we got to sample a range of different wines. We ended up walking out with a bottle of Pinot Noir.
Next was Wither Hills which I think was my favourite of the day. We had a really delicious Moscato type spritzer which Mel bought a bottle of.
We went back to the motel to make our own sandwiches for lunch.
After the lunch break we hit up three more wineries: Allan Scott, Saint Clair and Rock Ferry. I tried a few Pinot Gris at these wineries but none of them really took my fancy. There was a nice Tamperello at Rock Ferry which I may go back and buy for Shannon if nothing catches my fancy tomorrow.
For dinner we went to a German pub. I had goulash which was okay but the whole experience was ruined by this family that had three awful children who were running around and being little s***s.
We bought some dessert from Countdown and headed back to the motel to catch a Jersey Shore marathon.
