Subtitle: Nine wineries in an afternoon is too many.
A couple of weekends ago, SIL and her friend came out to visit us, and we went wine tasting on Seneca Lake. Somehow, we went to nine wineries in 3.5 hours, decimating our previous record of seven, since I also think the day we went to seven, we started earlier, and also stopped for lunch.
ANYWAY, somehow we managed to come home with a wine club membership and two cases of assorted wine (in addition to the 20-some bottles we already had at home) and tonight we opened one of the bottles from the 9th winery... Fulkerson Merlot... and it was FANTASTIC!
Thank god he has a higher tolerance than I do... I only vaguely recall being there in the first place! He knows what I like though, and apparently the merlot was on special. Good choice, hubby!
Re: Why I love my husband...
I love Fulkerson, I'll have to make sure to try the Merlot
that whole "vaguely remember being there" seems to happen to me, when I come home with wine that I don't even remember trying.
