Wine Tasting

This weekend we were invited to Orient Point which is at the end of Long Island.  If you know anything about Long Island you know that typically the traffic is horrible.  We got super lucky and hit absolutely no traffic on Saturday morning.  Since we got there so quickly, it was too early to go to our friend's home.  Instead we stopped off for some wine tasting along the way.
Pindar Vineyards was literally on our way to Orient Point.
This part of Long Island is wine country.  It's New York's version of Napa Valley.
So at 11am we were wine tasting.  Is 11am too early?
Apparently not.
We tasted five different red wines.  
We loved three of them and bought two of each.

Stop back tomorrow to check out more of our weekend trip.

    If they're serving, I guess it's not too early, Judy! : ) Pindar wine is actually one I know of and really like {although, I'm not a big wine drinker}. They used to have a store down in Port Jefferson that I went in for gifts {it was right down the block from where I worked so it was convenient, too}.

    A few years ago out with friends for a day of exploring we did an impromptu wine tasting and had so much fun! Now we have a winery a few miles from us and I've only stopped in once.

    Looks like a red wine. Definitely, it has been shown, though not conclusive, to lower cholesterol and fight free radicals.
