Wine Tasting in the Annapolis Valley


After our stop at Peggy's Cove it was 2PM.  

A quick internet search and we found that we could still make the 4PM wine tour at Gaspereau Vineyard (near Wolfville) - of course with the "Gangsta-mobile" and Marc at the wheel we arrived with time to spare.








A bit of time to shop is a dangerous thing - by the end of the tour we had sent a case home :)  Thank-you very much!!





The Gaspereau tour was amazing, our host was knowledgeable, unpretentious and we loved the apron that holds 4 bottles - no cook should be without this.




After this tour was complete, you guessed it we dashed over to the Grand Pre Vineyard for the 5PM tour and tasting.





In the absence of bung-holes, which Joe enjoyed so much on our previous trips, Joe has been further developing his olfactory sense with Nova Scotia wines.



Well, needless to say, we had such a great time another case of wine was ordered - Thank-you very much!!!

It should be there before we get home, unless Aunt Nadine gets to it first.





Having tasted 14 different wines, we decided to eat before heading back to Halifax.  We had a fantastic dinner at the Grand Pre Restaurant - Le Caveau.  By the way, our waitress is in Kinesiology at Acadia and knows Steven.  Gotta love small towns.
