When you visit Mulwala, you're surrounded by wine country. So when my aunt asked if there was anything I wanted to do while I was here; my answer, "It might be nice to visit some wineries." A few days later my uncle planned a route for us in the morning, and by about 11am we headed off to the first winery.
Although at our first winery, All Saints Winery, we only had a few tastes of a variety of wine and some cheese, we had a plan after that. It was my uncle's plan. First we would have lunch at The Pickled Sisters Cafe, and then we would follow it with three wineries; one for white wine, one for red wine, and the last for fortified wines (like port, sherry, and brandy). It was a wonderful tour and I'm so happy I got to spend sometime with my aunt and uncle! Thank you you two!!
The whites weren't too memorable, but Uncle Brian messed-up our plan at the first winery after lunch anyhow by ordering a Muscat; the most famous wine of the region. The reds were nice, including the easily drinkable Bobby Burns. The fortified wines were very sweet and strong. After a few sips of those I was finished with the tour. I was happy enough to get back to their house and relax before dinner.
For dinner we went to the Waterski Club and met my cousin and his girlfriend there. The smorgasbord was nice and the company was great. Uncle Brian even won $50!
