I’ve started drinking wine 12 years ago. It is safe to say that I’ve tried many styles & my palate has evolved. I’m glad that 12 years on, I finally tasted a wine where I can truly say, you can taste the effort, the sincerity & the skill of the winemaker.

Read moreHad a totally unpleasant wine tasting experience today (21 Aug, 3.30pm). Wife and I went in and most of the wines were not available for tasting. The staff didnt make the effort to explain or introduce their range of wines. My wife had 1 glass of wine and wasnt poured a glass for the other tastings. In total I must have had 5 tastings which I had to share the glass with my wife. We didnt want to fuss about it as the experience was so bad compared to the other vineyards.

Totally felt unwelcomed. ...
