John gave a brief history of the vineyard before the gathering sampled many of the vintage on offer and purchases transacted.
Lunch was taken in the shade on what was a beautiful warm early autumn day with just enough easterly breeze to make it comfortable.
As befitting of St Patricks Day, the Gilmours provided a touch of Ireland with their music.
- Neil Gilmour, Publicity Officer.
The College for Seniors is taking about 40 members further afield this week with a trip to Melbourne for the Melbourne International Flower Show.
As well as an opportunity to take in the largest show of its kind in the southern hemisphere, members will have the opportunity to see Werribee House and other attractions over their three-night trip.
Upcoming local events include a visit to Forbes Court House and a tour of the Central West Livestock Exchange.
