don't leave. |
Last Saturday we went up to the russian river for what is known as "barrel tasting". Basically, you drop 10 dollars and get a glass and a wristband, then for the rest of the weekend you have a pass to go to every winery in the region, and they fill you up with a taste, er, or gulp. Since some of the wineries had about 12 to taste from, I don't really remember saturday.
Some highlights
1) We got to sleep in the "inlaw" of the cottage that our friends rented. It was a shed in the back with one wall that was the stump of a burnt out old redwood tree. Neat!
2) Food samples with all the wine - bbq ribs, paella, shredded skirt steak. Think costco sample counters manned by chefs
3) The very fact that it was 10 dollars for the whole weekend! This doesn't happen anymore.
That sounds unspeakably awesome ... staring at monitors all the time blows ... good for you ... do you happen to have more any picts or links?
cheers
