在酒途上,我們決定停下來,享受一吓克菲特沙灘的風景,那裡水清沙幼,我們脫去鞋,踢踢水,吸收一些靈氣吧!之後來到"脅迫"酒莊,莊主介紹幾個不同味道的白酒,均屬佳釀,亞伯連奴適宜海鮮餐用,而愛妻則欣賞圓滿蜜香那一種,我唯有各様都買合共六瓶!晚飯就簡單地在馬達根那村解決,那村只有一間面對公廁的意大利薄餅餐廳,食物和那公廁相映成趣,頗有風味!飯後我們再探險一囘,返回酒店之時也已近十點了!

Warkworth/Matakana Wine Trial

On our way to Matakana for a wine trial, we stopped by at Hatfield Beach and had quite a good kick of the water there. After that, we visited Ransom Vineyard. The owner, Gabriel Ransom recommended us Albariño which is quite dry and good for taking seafood. Ming however likes Grand Mere more as it is of honey taste made of Sweet Pinot Gris. At last we settled with a combination of both and bought altogether half a dozen.
Matakana village was really small. There was not much choice to choose except a pizza restaurant for our dinner. Nonetheless, it was a very relaxing and enjoyable moment to dine opposite the artistic toilets. By the time we returned to hotel in Auckland, it was almost 10pm.
