We enjoyed a lovely picnic with the Trudeau family today at the Alexis Bailly Vineyards. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of Minnesota wines at this vineyard, both red and white. After tasting a variety of wines, ports, and an ice wine, I decided to purchase a bottle of Seyval Blanc. It is a nice crisp white table wine made with a variety of grapes from France that that they no longer cultivate (something about the plants not being hardy enough... too difficult to grow).
And WHOA... what a lucky find at the vineyard, Mary Ann and Jerry Hines (Corey's Godparents)! Lise and I were just checking out the sites and discovered them having a picnic with friends. That just made the day extra good.
