Long weekend

After having a fantasic time at the Red Wine Weekend, tasting many of the 76 beautiful Tasmanian wines on offer, I want to share my top 3 picks. Number one and way head of the rest was a fine Birches Bay grown Pinot - Yellow Point "Bloody Eleventh" no website for this grower, but if your interested in purchasing your can email an order you won't be dissappointed. Number 2 pick is Riversdale 2008 Centauris Reserve Pinot Noir is just devine. #3 gong goes to Cape Bernier Vineyard 2008 Pinot Noir, another fine Tassie wine. I went home with all three. I also treated myself to some Bruny Island Cheese to take home - I sampled their wares - Tom and Oen cheeses and took home a beautiful cheese matured in Pinot grape skins (it's name escapes me, must have been the wine). A very special treat. Looking forward to Wine South's October White Wine Weekend. I'll be there with bells on.
