T for Winemaker Luncheon

 Welcome to T and Tuesdays with the Queen of Tea Elizabeth and Bluebeard.
This week my drink is an adult beverage, a golden Viogner wine, while sitting on the patio area of a winery over on the coast.  We were there for a Winemaker Luncheon and to pick up our spring collection of wine.

Here is the tasting room, which is open to the public for wine tasting.  They always pair it with on appetizer and will give  you the recipes.

 The winery sits on top of a hill, here is the view you can enjoy while sitting in chairs, made of wine barrels, and tasting your wine.

 This is the patio area, where they had those of us there for the luncheon, gather.  It is also a spot where you can sit and sip your wine during a tasting.

Two of the employees, that were our hostesses, and got everybody checked in  and made sure we all started with the Viogner. 

 The tables were set up on a lower level, just outside the doors to the working part of the winery

The gentleman in the beany is John, the owner of the winery

Once we were all seated John had a few words to say.

 Just waiting for the cabbage salad, braised lamb and pork stew with a delicious flat bread, and of course a sample of all the new wines. 
It was really a good gourmet meal, the cabbage salad was my very favorite.  I don't even remember what dessert was.....LOL

A Spring Picture for all our friends still experiencing the bitter winter.

Today was a holiday, here in the States, President's day and there was no school so I got to have the Grand-Ds for a sleep over and a day of fun.  The almonds are in various stages of blooming, depending on the variety.  The girls are walking in one that has started to drop the blooms.
So what are you drinking today?
I will be around tomorrow (Tuesday) to find out what's in your cuppa and what you have been up to this week.......right now it is late Monday night and I think I hear my pillow calling to me........
Inky Hugs
