Free queen size mattress

Enrique from Lynfield

Hi,
I have an old but very comfy mattress to give away. It has some rips on the underside (couldn't take a good picture so just showing where it is more or less) as well as some stains so by no means a new item BUT it's VERY comfortable and it has served us perfectly fine until now. So as… View moreHi,
I have an old but very comfy mattress to give away. It has some rips on the underside (couldn't take a good picture so just showing where it is more or less) as well as some stains so by no means a new item BUT it's VERY comfortable and it has served us perfectly fine until now. So as long as you don't mind the aesthetics it could serve you too, we just don't have any storage space and don't need it anymore as we have one less room. Pick up Lynfield but if the pick up is the problem let us know and we might try to help.

This week we have enjoyed tasting and learning about innovative estates such as Burn Cottage from Central Otago, Heron’s Flight who make an exceptional Sangiovese in Matakana. Always a pleasure to taste the wines of Hans and Therese Herzog and we savoured the Mistral, a blend of 60% Viognier, 20% Marsanne and 20% Roussanne.

Te Mata’s Cape Crest showcases Hawkes Bay barrel-fermented Sauvignon Blanc and is interesting to compare with Sancerre from Henri Bourgeois also the owner of Clos Henri. Pegasus Bay’s Finale is New Zealand best example of a Sauternes style with deliciously ripe Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc.

Learning about New Zealand’s wine geography and tasting some special wines along the way is always rewarding.

The wines that were tasted were -
- Hans Herzog Estate, Mistral 2016
- Burn Cottage Vineyard, Pinot Noir 2016
- Te Mata Estate Winery, Caupe Crest Sauvignon Blanc 2017
- Heron's Flight Vineyard - Matakana, Amphora Sangiovese 2016
- Pegasus Bay Winery, Finale 2017
- Henri Bourgeois Sancerre, 2018 (Clos Henri Vineyard)
