If you’ve ever had the experience of an afternoon wine tasting at a vineyard or winery, I’m sure you noticed how serene the surroundings were. You could probably feel the energy of agriculture in the making; growing and vibrating around you. Take that experience and fold it into a week-end, which is just what my family and I did in early August. We stayed in a beautiful cottage overlooking the vines at Stonewall Creek Vineyards. Our friends the winemaker’s hosted us. The view from the cabin displayed the beauty that God intended. The view was further enhanced by the lovely dinners and wines and kinship shared, between the two families, among the vines; dangling cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon, and petit verdot were awaiting their October picking. I still remember the fruity taste of the Beaujolais Fleurie and the vibrancy of the Stonewall Creek Vineyards Yukari Rosé…. it was all perfect. Even The Rare Wine Company Madeira paired with dessert was perfection. You know it was a gift, in a world where everything is hurry, hurry, hurry, time stood still that week-end and we were able to just be…..I suppose just as God intended.
enjoy
