Song - "Red, Red Wine" by UB40

Thanks to my buddy Brian, I and a handful of other fortunate friends, tasted an oh, so delicious 1982 Opus One which might have ruined me for good on buying three buck chuck (Charles Shaw). Thanks so much for sharing Brian!

Edgefield Wine Tasting

VIDEO #301

Song - "Bare Feast" by Ratatat

Not too far down my way exists a place where one can enjoy the many pleasures this man might just want in life... all on one property. Restaurants, whiskey bar, brewery, movie theater, lazy pool style hot tub, nightly concerts, hotel, pool hall, pitch and putt golf, walk through garden and yes, winery with cheap wine tasting. Where might this land be? Watch the video.

Maryhill Wine Tasting

VIDEO #191

Song - "Red, Red Wine" by Neil Diamond

Wine tasting in Oregon and Washington is a huge perk living in the Pacific Northwest. Maryhill is right over the Columbia River from Oregon in Goldendale, WA. They are a higher volume producer than most wineries around the area and have recently added a concert venue to their estate. Now, if you were to drive down the way and drop in to another tasting room, it might not be so elaborate. For example, one of my favorite wineries, Paradisos del Sol in Zillah, WA, is a tiny house you pull up to and meet the owner/winemaker who pours his wine for you. I looked into it and their distribution is pretty minimal but they do ship to Washington, Minnesota and Alaska.... kind of random, huh? All the other 47 states have to make the drive.
