{The Walker Winos...}

After fighting it for years....we decided since we were staying @ the Wine Country RV Resort, and we are SURROUNDED by vineyards/wineries, that we would do some tastings. Well.....3 tastings later, and we now have a "collection" of 8 bottles of wine! Okay, okay....4 of them are the Firestone Late Harvest Riesling (which is a SUPER sweet dessert wine), 3 of them are White Rieslings (2 different vineyards), and the 4th is a Cabernet Franc Rosé. We HAD a 4th bottle of Firestone White Riesling, but somehow between Dan, Cindi, Mike, and Michelle....it was gone VERY quickly! I guess we have big wine glasses! Hee, hee! We went to the J. Lohr vineyard and bought only 2 bottles of Bay Mist White Riesling (1 for us and 1 for a fellow CHiPpie). We then went to the Firestone Vineyard which is right outside our RV resort. There is actually a vineyard path to it from the park, so you get to walk along through the vineyard....really neat! THAT is where the bulk of our wine buying took place. We found that we prefer their wine. There was a SUPER cute puppy @ the Firestone Vineyard named Charlie. A King Charles Cavalier Spaniel. He gets to go to work with his owner and has free run of the place. He's so sweet and friendly and since Cindi and I went tasting there twice, we got to know and love him! We definitely will not become wine connoisseurs, but we sure enjoy it!
