Part 2 Another Wine Tasting

Since the day was still young, why not try another winery...OK lets go.

On to Waconia to the Parley Lake Winery and Deardorff Orchards & Vineyards. From listening to conversations around me this was the 1st anniversary, opening last year on September 4th. Again the same premise $5.00 for your choice of 4 out of 6 tastings and best part you get to keep the glass..Yippee!

What I liked about this place beside the wines, is that you could take your tasting, go outside walk around or go to the little store selling various apples and then come back for your next tasting. Must admit there wines were much better then Woodland Hill. For just being open for a year they were doing a great business. The best of my 4 pics was the Frontenac Rosso which is their gold medal winner, the worst was the Syrah which is a California grape trucked in and crushed at Parley.

The day is not over yet, on to the Island View Golf and Country Club. The last stop to top off a great day. One must end the day with an appetizer and a drink, just in case you have not had enough during the day.

Again a lovely way to spend a Saturday during the Fall and not too expensive!

My last comment...another day like today I will be on the road for a new liver or can somebody point me in the direction of AA or maybe Hazelden!!!!!!
