Wineries in Yerra Valley
We took a wine tour today to four wineries and I was amazed at how much wine they give you. In the States, you get a predetermined amount of wine, but at these places, we could take as many tastings as we wanted of all different kinds of wine. It was fantastic. Ani and I both probably drank two bottles full each today. They served us lunch as well, I got the lamb shank which was delicious. At the second winery, they also had fudge tastings which were waaay too good. Ani bought some of those, and I bought a few bottles of wine. The fourth winery also had sparkling red wine which is unique to Australia, along with some excellent relishes, cheeses and bread. It was a great day of views and drinking.
When we came back, we dropped our stuff off and went out to one of Ani’s favorite spots, a Polish place (she is polish) called Vodka, Borsch, and Tears; a sort of lamented description of Poland but none the less expressive. They had more types of vodka then i have ever seen. I’d love to have that place in Austin! I had a vodka cocktail and we ate perogis, lamb stew, and an array of polish tapas. So good. I’m going to now retire and allow my stomach to digest.
