Wine Country


The Nelson / Tasman area produces some of the best wine in New Zealand. I'm fortunate enough to have been commissioned by a local wine tour company to take pictures for them for their marketing literature. Of course, my trusted assistant and I had to attend a wine tour to see what it was all about. Amy wasn't too hesitant to help out with this. She didn't even mind when I told her to stand over there and drink wine. Here's an example of her doing a fine job...


It was a beautiful day, and we got some great pictures of some of the local vineyards with the grapes fully ripe...


We ended the tour down the road at the local pub, which is the oldest continually running pub in New Zealand. Because you can't just drink wine...
