The two wineries were quite different but both were interesting and we got plenty of different wines to taste. Both talks accompanying the tasting were very interesting. Personally whilst the drive along the coast was nice, I wasn’t overly impressed by Glenelg but that was personal choice. Our driver Craig was excellent keeping us entertained with interesting facts during the journey.”
