The tastings were varied and the staff involved knew their stuff. Our driver Tere was a lovely warm and knowledgable person who had lived locally for 18 yrs. She was terrific company and the other people on the mini bus were great company, we all had a good afternoon and enjoyed the wine and the cheese platter too.
