Easter 2012 – Day 12
We started out for a day in the Barossa valley with uncle john acting as tour guide.
we made our way out of the Adelaide hills first stopping at the world famous Jacobs Creek Winery, this is Australia’s biggest selling winery, the cellar door is very modern, and had bus loads of visitors coming thru, after a few tastings we left, not purchasing anything
Grant Burge Winery
Rockford Wineries
We stopped at Peter Lehmann Winery, tasting more wines and stopping for lunch, with a platter of various meats cheese olives nuts assorted dips and breads. The veranda we sat on had a great view of the beautiful garden area.
Wolf Blass was a stop David wanted to see as he usually drinks the Merlot they produce. The winery and cellar door was very up market and modern we didn’t purchase any bottles of wine.
Last stop of the day was Penfolds, unfortunately David & Uncle John didn’t like any of the wines here. I did though so I bought a bottle of Voigner.
I had to drive thru Adelaide in peak traffic to pick up aunty gay from work, I did well !
Andrew returned a happy but tired Brendan to us but couldn’t stay.
We had another nice tea followed once again by a huge bowl of fresh local Strawberry’s & ice cream, then showed aunty gay our snapshots of the days events.
