Carlyn just told me that a host who owns a vineyard outside of Melbourne has CONFIRMED dates with us! So now we are officially working on a vineyard for three weeks. Actually calling where this place is "outside of Melbourne" is a bit of a misnomer because its about two hours away, but we will be traveling there from Melbourne so that seems appropriate.
The vineyard, Blue Gables, is in the Yarra Valley, which is a great area for wines (so say my guidebooks). Blue Gables makes Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris (aka Pinot Grigiot, my favorite!), Shiraz, and Chardonnay. The closest town to us is Maffra. Seems quaint! They have a Beet Museum. I mean, come on. That's just undeniably cool.
