After a famous pie shop stop, and a wonder around some local boutique, hand made, tea pot and gift shops, we make our way for some wine tastings and chocolate creations in another famous location, the Yarra Valley; a wonderful winery region in Victoria, and one of the best, not to mention underrated, pristine areas of Southeastern Australia.
