South Australia

After the Central to South Explorer APT tour ended, we had a brief look around Adelaide, and then headed for Greenock in the Barossa.

South Australia has many of the best wine producing areas in the country. We decided to check out wineries in the Barossa and Coonawarra on the way from Adelaide to Melbourne. 

My tennis mate Bruce, who moved up to the Gold Coast from South Australia, gave us these wine-tasting tips. Bruce used to live in Keith.
