A Great Wine Tour

We had a fabulous day out on this tour. Peter was a great host/guide, very knowledgeable & a very warm person. We visited 4 great wineries & did a cheese tasting to start the day, with a delicious pizza lunch at one of the wineries. We would thoroughly recommend this day tour.

Wine Tour 🍷

# 🍷 The Wine Tour 🍷 We started the day all classy and bright, “We’ll just have a taste!” — yeah, bloody right! We swirled and we sniffed, like we had a clue, “Hints of oak?” — *Nah mate, just pour me two!* 😂 First winery down, we’re feeling refined, Second one in… we’ve all lost our minds. By number three, we’re buying a case, And someone’s got crackers all over their face. “Just one more glass!” was heard from the crew, Then suddenly someone had lost a shoe! 👠 The quiet one’s dancing, the loud one’s asleep, And someone’s spilling secrets too deep. 🤫 We came for the wine, the views and the cheer, But somehow spent half of next month’s pay here. We boarded the bus with bottles galore, Then yelled at the driver — **“ONE WINERY MORE!”** Tomorrow we’ll wake with a thumping headache, Check our bank and call it a mistake. But when someone asks, “Would you do it again?” We’ll raise up our glasses and shout— **“WHEN?!”** 🍷🥂😂

Enjoyed all the stops!

Andrew, our guide, was great! The wineries and wines were excellent and we liked that they were smaller & family owned. The Wicked Cheese was very tasty! Our pizza lunch was so good too! We really enjoyed the day and everything ran on time!

Wonderful day in Richmond and the Wineries

Peter was an amazing host taking us to great wineries and explaining all the history and all the interesting facts as we drive around. We were extremely well looked after. A very personalised tour, felt like the only two there. Very very highly recommended.
