Rainy, dark California Day

 It has been a rainy, dark California winter day. We jumped in the car and headed to taste wine. Our morning adventure at Hanzell wines Delicious Wine  got us trying some new blends. It is a beautiful vineyard with wonderful overlooks, quail in the vines, all the old Chardonnay vines, and pigs and chickens are keeping the ground worked up. Or guide to the Vineyard history for the place was amazingly talented and educated. We enjoyed her very much.  Off then to Napa for a quick stop at our favorite store, Oakville Grocery. We stocked up for a patio picnic, if it ever quits raining! Then a couple of hours at the lovely Round Pond Vineyard.  Check out Round Pond. Off  tonight  for dinner to a very special place, the Glen Ellen Star.  Glen Ellen Star.  There is a Chardonnay in the refrigerator chilling!
