Wine Tasting

My niece, Kim, came to visit and my daughter, Kelsey was home from college over Easter weekend. My niece turned 21 last June and I promised to take her out for a drink and I finally got around to it!! Kelsey was the designated driver.

We did a tasting at Macari and I explained the process to Kim. She did a great job and really liked the wines, as did I.  Here are some of our favorites.

We sat outside by soon to be blooming vineyards and ate out snacks of Weight Watchers Multi Grain Crisps, Laughing Cow French Onion and Garlic Herb cheeses, blackberries, apple slices, carrots and cucumbers. Yes, you can go wine tasting and still be prepared :) We enjoyed a glass of Chardonnay here. Very delicious.
Onto our final winery, One Woman Winery. Check this winery out on line, http://www.onewomanwines.com/ 
It is an amazing story and she makes truly fantastic wines. I had the Gewurztraminer and Kim had the Chardonnay. It is a bit pricey but well worth it.
This is the tasting shed where her charming and friendly daughter, Gabriella, serves up the wines.

After a fun filled wine tasting tour we ended the day with a little shopping and dinner in the beautiful and quaint town of Greenport.
Girls will be girls.  What a great day!!
