From the top you can see all the vineyards from nearby wineries, and you can even see the city of SF from their deck!<br /><br />A must visit if you're ever in that area. Also, Yakima, WA has some cute wineries, too. <br /><br />I'm slowly starting to appreciate this whole wine thing as I get used to the taste. One thing I know for sure is that I love the more sweet ones.lindahttp://onefinedae.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877236870171278869.post-82352580334868113632010-07-13T16:38:43.923-07:002010-07-13T16:38:43.923-07:00I'll take an enormous glass of the Almond wine...I'll take an enormous glass of the Almond wine...<br /><br />I've never done any official wine tasting, but I can imagine that 5 tastes would bring out my light-weightedness as well :)bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15317376256234568601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877236870171278869.post-82258810628085185382010-07-13T15:18:13.513-07:002010-07-13T15:18:13.513-07:00Yum!

I don't drink alcohol so I soon found myself staying outdoors and taking gorgeous photos while everyone else inside sipped wine. About halfway through our five-winery tour, however, I had many people joining me outside since it was so lovely! So even I found something to do and appreciate :)<br /><br />PS That etsy wedding sounds so adorable.Phoenixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07477498671080132176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877236870171278869.post-23013702413799490562010-07-12T12:24:06.541-07:002010-07-12T12:24:06.541-07:00@Shoshanah- I remember going wine tasting with my ...@Shoshanah- I remember going wine tasting with my parents as a kid too and you're right, it's no fun when you can't drink! plus, I don't really like cheese so there really was nothing in it for me, haha. I actually got dehydrated on that trip and felt really sick... so this time around wine country was definitely more fun! :)<br /><br />too bad I can't get all you gals together for a bloggers wine tasting trip! how fun would that be?!Carissa Thilgenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17461334542105430269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877236870171278869.post-63154580682148036222010-07-12T11:55:00.324-07:002010-07-12T11:55:00.324-07:00Wine tasting is SO MUCH FUN!

Ok so maybe not all of them and maybe I won't have that much time but I'm still excited nonetheless.

While I know I'd love stopping at a winery now for a tasting, whenever I think about it I always remember how bored I used to be as a kid. There really isn't a whole lot for a kid to do at a winery, although even back then I would have been more than willing to try the wine!Shoshanahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15707241263291051104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877236870171278869.post-84755673935893322592010-07-09T09:48:04.995-07:002010-07-09T09:48:04.995-07:00That looks so fun!

We got to take our shoes off and stomp in barrels of grapes which was messy fun, hahaha. My most recent winery tour was a Texan winery for a Wedding Planner's event.<br /><br />But you know what? I am not even a big fan of wine. I really dislikemost, buri go on these tastings because the few good ones are definitely worth tasting through all the gross ones.Dionnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03952469911180442104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877236870171278869.post-3259552105056562692010-07-08T23:18:07.675-07:002010-07-08T23:18:07.675-07:00I have never been wine tasting, but for years I ha...I have never been wine tasting, but for years I have been wanting to try it.
