WE'RE IN HAWKE'S BAY!

Lyn from Tauranga Tasting Tours & Charters

The first 2 days of our our Hawke's Bay Four Day Winery Tour went well. We had a delicious lunch at LINDEN, with a free matched wine with each course & a port to finish, as well as a tasty well-informed humorous wine presentation.. As usual CRAB FARM was quirky & CJ PASK classy. Each year, since 2008, The Gimblett Gravels Winegrowers' Association has hired a Sydney-based Master of Wine to choose his top syrah & blended reds from a single vintage. Of the 6 syrah chosen from the 2018 Vintage Selection, 2 were from Smith & Sheth, We salivated over their excellent wines & appreciated a knowledgable & passionate presenter..PARITUA WINERY'S greatest strength is in their Bordeaux-style red wines. With the help of a high-tech digital sorting machine that photographs every berry, rejecting those with imperfections, Paritua can make good wines from vintages from which many would qual! Bob Campbell says that this stylish, modern winery is one to watch. After tasting their wines, we agree! We also had lunch & an axcellent tasting at BLACK BARN. Two more days on this trip & we'll be redoing the tour 15-18 October, so if you wish to come, get in touch!.

Shame on You!

Lisa from Otumoetai

This is what greeted workers at Brookfield Sallies yesterday morning. All of it looks like it should have gone straight to the tip, which is what the Sallies will now have to pay to do. Surely whoever does this has no conscience. The Sallies do an amazing job of helping people in times of need and they don't need to be spending any money they receive on doing your dirty work, especially at this time of year.
