An August Day in Sydney


Each year, the winemakers of Mudgee would bring their fabulous award-winning wines to Sydney at the famous Mudgee Wine and Food Fair. 

My friend lives literally just minutes away from the exciting venue which is located at picturesque Balmoral Beach.  We were so lucky to get to sample the delights without the need to travel!  The wines came to us instead!  How fab can one get?

Well, it could only get better as the day was pleasantly filled with sunshine - I nearly forgot August is indeed winter time in Sydney!

Great insight gained in the perception of Australian wineries and the 2 that stood out after some dozens of sips in the fair were:

Peterson's Viognier & Cooks Lot's Pinot Gris.

Absolutely gorgeous wine tasting experience I had today.  I should consider living in Sydney!
