The Auswine Forum

Hello all,
I don't get here too often anymore, but nice to know it's still humming along.
I'm off to the Hunter at the end of the month and looking for some recommendations. We're staying at the Drayton's Vinyard in Pokolbin from Sunday to Wednesday, so hoping it's a little quieter and not too many tourists. Looking for both food and wine recommendations.
Over to you...

Thanks Michael. I'll check your list out.

on a side note, does anyone have experience with Lake's Folley?

I went to Lakes Folly many years ago and it was good.

They only have the two wines (Chardonnay and Cabernet, and sometimes a third wine). Have really enjoyed them in the past. Worth checking in advance if they may be sold out.
