Kev Tipler organized another of his famous wine runs to the Barossa Valley on Friday 26 July.
We met for coffee and breakfast at the Tanunda Bakery.
We then drove to Chateau Tanunda for tastings. Tastings were $10 per head but were not charged if you purchased any wine to take away. We were well looked after by staff who provided tastings on a range of their products. All were well received. We also received a further 15% discount off purchases as Sam Cutajar’s friend signed up as a member and purchased a substantial quantity of wine.
We then drove to a friend of Kev’s who has a substantial collection of early fuel bowsers, and related memorabilia, an early US muscle car, and several historic Triumph motor bikes. The ladies opted to visit Wohlers shop in Tanunda.
The next stop was for lunch and wine at One Drop wines in Nuriootpa. A wide variety of Tapas was available with a range of their wines. The meals were delicious, and the staff very friendly.
We then cruised up to Menglers Hill for a spectacular view over the Barossa Valley before visiting the Barossa Valley chocolate factory for coffee and cake (and many chocolate purchases!)
A big thank you to Kev for organizing the day. A great day out for all those who attended, and the rain stayed away for a lovely sunny day.
