Last week we rewarded ourselves for another busy and eventful year with lunch at the brand new Gladioli Restaurant in Inverleigh. We were very impressed with the restaurant that chef Matthew Dempsey has set up, in its first week of operation. Along with a focus on local produce, there is also a nice wine list with plenty of local wines represented. This is a great new addition to the region and we expect to be hearing a lot more about it as word gets around.
The team from Loam restaurant spent the day at the winery helping with our vintage activities, including foot-stomping all of the ferments. We tasted all of the juices and wines we are working on, as well as some older barrels, and shared our thoughts on them before having lunch with a few older vintages and interesting imported bottles.
