Swallow or spit? Perfect your wine tasting technique in Perth
Oh, the jokes are just too easy. I’m not gonna go there.
Instead, just go here to read Neil and Megan’s tale of their experiences in ‘The Valley of Taste’ in Perth, sampling West Australia’s finest wines. The STA Explorers learn the six S’s: size, swirl, sniff, sip, swish, swallow - quite rightly believing that spitting is for wusses - as they tour 4 family-run wineries.
After all that wine, they end up in the cells - no, not after a vintage port-fuelled rampage, but when they go on to visit Fremantle Prison, a landmark of convict history, established in 1850. They describe their torchlit evening tour in detail and highly recommend it to other travellers, especially as they hear ‘the spookiest, most weird, scary story I’ve heard in a long time’ beside the gallows.
A great couple of tip-offs for unmissable Ozzie experiences.
