Wine Week 161: A midsummer night’s dream.
March 28th, 2010
The hot days down under aren’t done with just yet. And vintage, when vineyards are picking their grapes, is in full force too. With both those things going on at once we look at a sparkling wine from Blue Pyrenees which is picked in the cool of the night to make sure they get the best from their grapes.
We also look at a super bargain priced Rosé from Angoves, and a classic quaffer from Pepperjack perfect for matching with lamb on the BBQ.

Wine Week 71: A sparkling idea for Mothers Day.
March 26th, 2010
This sunday is Mothers Day in Australia, and so we offer a sparkling wine that would be a perfect way to show your Mum that you care. As well we look at a Bordeaux style blend from Coonawarra and a somewhat unloved grape variety which doesn’t deserve the rough treatment it gets.

Yarra Valley Dandenongs And The Ranges, Victoria
March 20th, 2010
Immerse yourself in the Yarra Valley and Dandenong Ranges region, an hour’s drive east of Melbourne, where tall trees and ancient mountain ranges meet vineyards and world class wineries.
The Yarra Valley is recognised as one of the world’s great wine growing regions. Numerous wineries offer cellar door tastings and sales. They also have restaurants serving gourmet food and fine local produce accompanied by their wine. The Yarra Valley has some of the most beautiful countryside in Victoria. Rolling hills strung with vines around Healesville and Yarra Glen meet towering trees, green valleys and pristine rivers around Marysville and Warburton.
For a different view of the countryside, take to the skies in a hot-air balloon before gently descending into a vineyard to enjoy a breakfast of local produce and sparkling wine.
You can also get close to Australian wildlife at Healesville Sanctuary, home to dingoes, kangaroos, wombats and the elusive platypus.
Parks, gardens, native fern forests and nature trails define the Dandenong Ranges. Climb aboard Australia’s oldest steam train, Puffing Billy, and travel through thick forests and lush fern gullies. Dotted throughout the Dandenong Ranges are quaint villages such as Olinda, Gembrook, Belgrave, Emerald and Sassafras, home to some of Victoria’s best gardens, and famous for craft shops and Devonshire teas.
