Close Enough

One thing I wanted to do during my last trip to California was go to a winery.  

But, I ran out of time.

Luckily, my friend Kris had a voucher from White Silo Farm and Winery in Sherman, Connecticut  (just a 90-minute drive from New York City) for a tour of the vineyard, wine tasting, picnic lunch and a "free" bottle of wine.

For two!

And, luckily (for me), her husband had plans this weekend.

My favorite was the rhubarb 

Old apple press, used to make the rhubarb wine

It was a gorgeous day, and the wine was delicious.

I still need to check out a winery (or two) in California, but this, for now, was definitely close enough!
