Australia, The Hunter Valley

Bimbadgen Estate, Hunter Valley
An hour and a half from Sydney and you are in wine country - The Hunter Valley. This winery is a gem, and the restaurant, perfection. Check all menu items with your table host, and their chefs are very knowledgable.

Unable to make up my mind, and several glasses of Pinot and Sparkling Shiraz later, I opted for the taster plate made up of duck, salmon and beef - however the duck was off limits for me, so the chef put together another fish taster for me. You can opt for a red taster or a white taster - and each refers to the meat as well as the wine.
