Last tour was 70$ I think. @RooFlyer can you recall. Also would plan on a dinner that night for interested parties

If I recall correctly it was $45 for the bus, plus a couple of places charged for tastings. Dinner was a pay for what you ordered thing

If we get small numbers will look at hiring a car/people mover and I will drive. If we get slightly more I will get a small mini bus and driver like last time. Think I made a small loss myself last trip, so could be same price or slightly more depending on transport. Most places said they would charge a tasting, but did not if purchases were made. Obviously each place is different.

Is there a maximum group size for this @Tassieoptom ?

Will make a max size when we do a count up. Last time went bigger and were left with too many empty seats, hence my slight loss. Pretty sure there were generous people that added a bit to their share at dinner which balanced the books. Will look up the size of the last bus again. You keen to do the same bus?

 

[Steady]

The bus was great imo,

I was actually thinking that the CD’s could have a maximum group size

(Just a heads up on the thread @Delectable Blue )

No way we will go back to get lunch at that winery! No way no how, life is too short for bad food and wine.

Cellar Door’s

 

[Tassieoptom]

Cellar Door’s

Not ever been refused a tasting before, but would think if we had too big a bus load they may map not have enough glasses. Will do a ask around and get back to you.

Yes, and that’s why I had asked for this weekend.

Plat for me.

May see if my brother is interested, but expect he still works Saturday’s

 

[ALH]

Computer says YES.

There’s some property we want to look at.

 

[penegal]

Again - early interest.

Not sure what my work situation will be that far ahead, but I am following the thread.

im still a non committal bronze firming to silver on this

 

[tuapekastar]

Gold (and likely) at this stage. I would like to commit for certain, but still abit far out, and I would prefer not to commit, then have to pull the pin.

Will advise when certain either way. Thanks for your efforts.
