Grape Picking

In March we were invited to grape picking at a small organic winery in the King Lake area of Victoria. About an hour outside of Melbourne. This was probably one of the best days I have had here... We picked for an hour, had morning tea. Picked for another couple and then had a big meal with lots of wine and music. Jeff, the owner and winemaker is also a musician. So, he and a few of the others just did a lot of improve playing and it was amazing. Ben had stayed home but Rachel played with the other girls and even got to go horseback riding. The weather was warm and spectacular and the company diverse and interesting. There was even a French guy!

Jeff is the one with the guitar.

Jenny is Jeff's partner and was more than happy to serve wine. She also took us to the building where the wine was made and explained the process. Because it is such a small winery it was very interesting.
