Pfeiffer Wines C2 Club
We’d already visited most of the major landmarks on the Rutherglen Muscat Trail and having spent several minutes waiting to be noticed among the crowd in the tasting room at All Saints I was quite happy to retreat to the motel room, rest and recuperate for a bit and wander into downtown Rutherglen for something to eat a little later on.
We still had plenty of time on our hands, so when Madam asked where we were headed, I suggested that we might head down Distillery Road and call in to this little winery called Pfeiffer Wines that had an interesting bridge across Sunday Creek. We pulled into the car park somewhere around three-thirty, and once we’d taken a stroll across the bridge, she suggested that we might as well wander into the tasting room and sample the wares on offer.
When we wandered out an hour or so later we’d signed up for the Wine Club after one of the most pleasant spells I’ve had in a winery anywhere.
One of the most enjoyable aspects of visiting a tasting room, apart from the obvious attraction of the samples on offer, is the opportunity to have a chat to whoever’s in attendance, and you often pick up all sorts of interesting information in the process, particularly if you’re talking to someone who’s been closely involved with the production of the wines.
