Support Prize Wines! Check out our ebook: http://www.amazon.com/Secret-Sydney-Bars-Walking-Guide-ebook/dp/B00PEV8CLE/ Hunter Valley Wine Tasting Tour from Sydney visiting Savannah Estate, Tempus Two, Blueberry Hill, Hermitage Cellars and James Estate. Commentary and on the spot reports from the wine country and gourmet food area. Also video of some of the scenery of the wine region through the window of the bus. Great short video to give you an idea as to what a wine tasting trip to the Hunter Valley is like. Hope you find it useful. I met some awesome people on the bus from Australia, USA, UK and China and had a great time and bought some great bottles of wine including Riesling, Shiraz, Sangiovese, Botrytis Semillon, Chardonnay and Vitai. Not to mention all the glasses of Moscato, Sauvignon Blanc, non vintage blancs, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Port, Muscat and other glass or two of sparkling wine I got to try. Just about every winery had a wine club to join with wine plans available too. Lots of things to see and do. It was a great way to celebrate my birthday! Welcome to Prize Wines. A sporadic video blog about the wines I'm drinking now. Please bear with me as I approach this from a casual wine drinker background. I'm not a wine grower. I'm a social wine drinker. So my description or off the cuff comments may not cover all the nuances of the wine. If you'd like to add more to my description of a particular wine, especially if you're the wine grower, distributor or retailer please feel free to comment below. To keep updated on when further videos are uploaded, please subscribe by clicking the subscribe button at the top of the page. This review may not reflect the reviews of other wine drinkers and wine organisations I may be associated with and are mine alone. -- Thank you for watching my wine reviews. I've received many fantastic and appreciated comments from people all around that have found the videos useful and I have seen a dramatic increase in the amount of people watching them (thank you, thank you very much), so in 2015 I will return with more wine review videos. If you are a wine producer and would like me to review your wine for free, please click on 'about' on my channel and send me a message. I'll email you the address to post the wine to as soon as possible. If you find the video useful you are welcome to use it on your website. Videos are recorded with a Samsung Galaxy Note II mobile and are completely unscripted. I cannot guarantee that I will be able to review every bottle of wine I receive but I will endeavour to do so. If your wine tastes great, it'll definitely get a review. If it doesn't, I would not wish to upload the video in case I was just unlucky enough to get a bad bottle, or there was some bottle shock in delivery, or it had been affected by the heat. I'm not a sommelier so, in that sense, you can receive down-to-earth reviews from the point of view of a real customer who just loves wine. If you're an enjoyer of fine wines like me and you like these videos and would like to contribute in some way, feel free to leave a comment below on what your favourite wine is like. If you're interested in supporting the creation of future videos, please consider buying our ebook: Secret Sydney Bars Walking Tour Guide 2014: A Guide to Finding Over 37 Interesting, Unique and Hidden Bars in Sydney City, from The Rocks to City Centre.
