3rd Annual West Elks Wine Trail

Friday night we had dinner at the Black Bridge Winery, which is also where we stayed for the weekend.  Awesome, as always.  The owners, Kathy & Lee are really great people, as are all the others there, Rob, Ashley, and all the rest.  Oh, and the wines are great, too!

Saturday we visited most of the wineries on the "Wine Trail" Here's the map:




S. Rhodes (all good, especially Clarets & Cab Franc):




Terror Creek (fantastic views, Swiss/Burgundy style wines):


Stone Cottage (excellent food pairings, very good wines):


Delicious Orchards (great produce, cafe, hard cider):


Azura (Good wines, great art gallery, amazing views):



We also visited Liliputian, and Alfred Eames.  Both have great wines.  Eames is probably our favorite overall.  Eames is a very down-to-earth, friendly guy, and a fantastic wine maker.  His cellar is really cool, too.
