Cache of the Day - Wine Tasting



I just can't think of anything that is as fun, romantic, relaxing, and self-indulging as spending a day on the wine trail.



Indiana has several of them, and Stacy and I spent a good part of the weekend visiting the Indiana Uplands Wine Trail. The only wineries we didn't hit were in French Lick, Bedford, and Bristow, but we'll catch those in a few weeks.

Tasting the wines, discussing their various characteristics and personalities is so educational, and comparing tastes with another is enlightening as well.

Stacy and I both prefer the drys, and stick to those primarily, but occasionally we'll try a "weird one", like the Black Currant at Butler Winery. The wine was so tart and sweet at the same time, that drinking even one glass was tough!





I wish every weekend could be as beautiful as this last weekend was. I'd be spending all my time exploring new wines on new trails!
