We settle into table 10, one of the few remaining. The band is setup at the edge of the lawn area, and they are playing American tunes. It is always interesting how US music has permeated throughout the world. We have heard it in Kenya, India, Egypt, Morocco, Peru, Iceland and other countries.
After a lazy start to Sunday we return to the vines of Moutere area, his time to Moutere Hills Vineyard. This is a boutique winery and cafe with music on Sunday afternoons. We arrive a little before 1 pm and everything is in full swing. The owner, Rusty Rayne is at the bar and provides me with tastes of a couple of their wines before I decide on a glass of their Chenin Blanc - Chardonnay blend. They have local craft beer on tap, and William selects an IPA. We settle into table 10, one of the few remaining. The band is setup at the edge of the lawn area, and they are playing American tunes.

We enjoy music and the beverages for a while then put an order in for their Moutere Hills Platter for a snack. While we wait we watch the children having fun on the lawn and the old tractor. Our platter arrives and it's huge - with a variety of freshly baked breads, three spreads, olives, smoked salmon, cheeses, salami's and fresh fruit. There's also four "salmon wings" which I think are BBQ'd salmon fins with about 1 1/2 oz of salmon flesh (and are delicious). So much for having just a snack!
