The lovely gardens of Napier wineries.
|
Some wineries are elegant; Salvare opted for farm-like, including an adorable winery-dog.
|
|
Finally...a wine glass big enough for ME!
|
Wineries also make gourmet chocolates...
|
...this is not-so-gourmet. But very Kiwi. Mmmmm Kiwi Poo.
|
|
Driving the winelands of New Zealand! On the wrong side of the road!
|
We stopped for lunch at the Trinity Winery.
|
Duck breast with figs, prepare to please me....
|
Matt indulges in the pork belly.
|
Very happy- with duck and wine, how can I not be?
|
The upscale dining room even has a cat to cuddle.
|
After lunch, Trinity invited us to the tasting room. Taste wine? Hells yes!!
|
Driving out of the vineyards.
|
I'm still not sure why a tasting room needs a swingset, but I am never one to turn down a good slide.
|
The Silky Oak Chocolate Company! And it has tastings!!
|
The Easter Bunny has his own bunny-segregated entrance.
|
The final winery of the day: Mission, a grand lovely estate overlooking the valley.
|
Enjoying the wines of Mission...
