Touring Wine Country

Last weekend was my a-dec mentor Anne's birthday. In true Anne fashion, she rented a Blimo (bus limo) and treated her friends to a wine tour. We visited Rex Hill Vineyards, WillaKenzie Estate, Sokol Blosser, Erath Winery, and The Four Graces. The Blimo took as from point to point, covering quite a bit of ground and allowing us to keep our BAC up in between stops.

I think my favorite stop was The Four Graces. They had a bit of a French flair and the winery is named for the owners' four daughters. The owners also have a son, and so as not to leave him out, the reserve refers to him as the keeper of the four graces. It's all very sweet, and the vineyard is all about sustainable farming and everything good. They even had shirts printed on American Apparel, so I had to buy one.

The entire day was fantastic, and I'm just honored to have been included. Thanks Anne!
