09.01.2022 Spring has arrived in the Hunter Valley Wine Country with the golden wattle trees in full bloom of large fluffy heads of golden yellow flowers which are very fragrant. Golden wattle is the national floral emblem of Australia ..... hence Aussie national sporting team colours are green & gold.
08.01.2022 For the first time in 140 years these 1879 planted Shiraz vines are getting watered, other than by rain. The harvest that would normally be due to start in late January or early February is shaping up as one the most challenging ever, with well below normal rainfall over recent years & well above normal temperatures. This temporary water system aims to provide these 'living museum' vines some help to deal with this unprecedented shift in climate.
