Wino! Jeri and I couldn't pass up visiting "The Hunter" Australia's equivalent to our Napa Valley. We spent the day drinking wine, eating cheese, and causing (a bit) of havoc at the wineries!
We started our day at McWilliam's award wining winery, where we spent...eh hum... 2 hours tasting wine and chatting with our new wine-making friends (As this was the start of the day, these are the only pictures we took.. the rest of the day was more of a blur!)
***As a side note, it is important for you to understand that "information center" in the Hunter Valley means an inlet on the shoulder of the road where there is a large map posted of the area--SUPER helpful*** So when we arrived at McWilliam's our wine tasting host Andy provided us with a proper map including his house which was artistically cut out and tapped to our map!
Matt was another amazing McWilliams host whom makes his own wine (keep your eyes out for him) He was kind enough to give us two bottles of his homemade (garage made) wine from his brand 14 Drops. Not knowing what they were getting themselves into...they let us run wild behind the bar and let us wear some amazing day-glow vests (these are worn out in the vineyards to keep track of people) which we rocked as indicators of awesomeness.
