Blenheim

It's wine country again and this time in NZ!
We had a lovely time driving to the different vineyards and sampling their offers - NZ wines are really good. We picked up a lovely Shiraz and a lovely fruity Sauvignon Blanc. Very nice, indeed!

They hadn't clipped the vines yet, unlike in Australia, so you can see that there was a lot of pretty foliage and autmn colours. The scenery is really calming.

Blenheim itself was alright, not much to report, just a small town really. We had a wander around the streets but the main thing really are the many vineyards around.
