An actual day of wine tasting. We tasted a few good ones and I bought a few bottles. We had a very good tasting at Horton Vineyards. We were the only ones there. The lady doing he pouring was from France and was very knowledgeable. Duh! She was French. She was from the Loire Valley so she wasn’t a rude Parisian. She gave us a few extra pours.

Then it was off to Barboursville for tasting and lunch at Palladio which to me is the highlight of the trip. What did I have to eat I hear you ask? Funny you should ask. Here is what I ate.

They don’t scrimp on the servings. It’s such a large meal, my sister and I don’t bother to eat dinner. My sister is never able to finish her meal at the Bavarian Chef from our first night, so my BIL is able to eat her leftovers the next night.
