Out on a country ride in Nottingham I had another of my "stumbled upons" which in this case means out of nowhere I am pulling into a driveway that says "wine"
(Always a good thing)
I got to meet a couple of the Wilson's who started this winery and they were personable and friendly. A mini wine tasting ensued and I am pleased to leave with their wonderful Riesling which is not sweet like Rieslings can be but what I consider mellow yet exciting. Fast forward 2 weeks and it was the hit of a family dinner.
Second taste was Carmine. They bill it as a "mystery grape". It's a little on expensive side wine but I could not leave there without a bottle after the warmth and excitement in my tasting. I'm saving this for a special occasion which I am sure will wind up just being some frigid evening in January.
Thought I heard someone behind the counter mention that the price may be coming down on this Carmine. If I find that it does, I'll be back for more bottles.
I love supporting family owned businesses in the Delaware Valley.
Praise be this winery is over an hour away from my house or I'd be here every weekend.
