From Volcanos to Vineyards

After our crazy volcanic hike we drove east to the art deco town of Napier in the center of the Hawkes Bay wine region. The weather was perfect for our day of wine tasting. We hit 2 vineyards that turn out to be wine we drink often at home - Seleni and Kim Crawford. Te Awa was another great one with an unbelievable setting for lunch. Unfortunately we were full from our stop at the local Farmer's Market a couple of hours earlier so we didn't stay for a meal.

Our day ended with a trunk load of bottles...it's going to be a fun couple of weeks when we get in our RV!

Watch how you go...
