My wife and I were picked up in a comfortable van by our Tour Guide, Sue who was very knowledgeable not only about the local wines but also Blenheim. We tasted at 3 wonderful vineyards (Nautilus, The Forrest, No.1 Family Estate) then another tasting with lunch at Wither Hills. Could not beat the setting for our lunch! Amelio, from Tuscany, was our tasting host there and was charming! Off to Makana for amazing chocolate treats! One last tasting at Lawson Dry Hills, hosted by Nigel. We really were able to get a sense for the wine making and the variety of wines made in this region of the world—it’s just not all Sauvignon Blanc!! Our guide, Sue, was gracious and accommodating. A wonderful host! We would highly recommend this tour for all.
