MAY WINE CLUB CELLAR PACK
Next month’s Cellar Pack going out Members, will be a set of wines we have chosen from around Spain. These will include a dry Cava from Penedes, a fabulous Albarino from a winery we visited in Rias Biaxas last year, and a delicious Verdejo, which we are very familiar with having made an award winning one in WA, but this one is made by the master winemaker Telmo Rodriguez. The reds will be a Rioja field blend of grapes grown in an old family vineyard in Rioja, a Crianza Tempranillo from the gorgeous Luis Cana vineyard a place we know well and then a fabulous Mencia from one of the best winemakers in Ribera Sacra, a granite hilly and rugged region inland from Rias Biaxas. I hope you will enjoy this Pack as much as I did putting it together for you. Why not become a Member to receive this delicious pack. www.wardloveswine.com.au, or treat your Mum this upcoming Mother’s Day.

The next Event is on 20th May, with Simon from Chatterleys Landscapes having a chat about some of the amazing gardens he has restored and rejuvenated in the Southern Highlands and surrounds. I had the opportunity to visit one of his gorgeous gardens in Orchard Road in the Open Gardens Event last weekend, such a treat. This is a very popular talk already, so it will be held in Links House Function room and I will also have some delicious wines to try.

The July event will be hosted by the very interesting David Wells, a curator from the Bradman Museum and also a collector of vintage cars – one for everyone. These are all accompanied by a small wine tasting. I look forward to seeing you there.
