Wine Tasting

Jim & Pat took me wine tasting today in Temecula, CA. We found some very nice wines and met some really nice people. The Temecula area has developed into quite the wine producing area. There are several dozen wineries and most of the grapes are grown locally. They do import some grapes from other vineyards in CA and some from other states. Many of the wineries are less than five years old.
The Wiens Family Cellars that we visited today only produces about 9,000 cases of wine per year and sells most of it from the premises and through its wine club.
As is true for many wineries in the area, the wine is available in some restaurants but generally not available
in the stores.
Hope you had a nice Christmas.

Warmest regards, Gus
