In our third day in the district we finally got to go wine tasting in the Coonawarra. After enjoying a Riesling from Patrick at the caves café we definitely put them on our list. As it turned out that kind of set the trend for the day as for no reason we focused on P’s.
First it was Penley in the morning while heading south, then lunch in Penola. On the return it we visited Parker and finally Patrick.
All of the wines that we tried were very good, but as expected it was the Cabernet Sauvignons that really stood out. Fruit characteristics were predominant generally and oak was used with a sensitive touch. All in all we were very impressed.
An interesting touch was the Apple Cider at Patrick. This was a winemaker’s cider; more like a champagne style really. Refreshing and sophisticated, yum.
Back in the caravan park we finished the day with more P’s. Pork scotch fillet steaks, Peas, Potatoes and (p)carrots.
