Wild Wine Weekend

We started the day yesterday with breakfast. We really had no idea where to go so we just drove around a bit. With no luck with that plan, we hit the highway towards Prosser. 

On the way, we saw a sign for the 10-4 Cafe in Grandview. They were packed and it took a while to get our food, but it was worth the wait and our day was underway. We appeared to be the only ones in the place that spoke english.

Our first stop was at this little wine shop we discovered a few trips back. We always find some fun drinking toy to buy.
Next we went to DavenLore Winery. We started our tasting day with a bunch of tasty wines they offered and the heavy pouring hand of the kid serving us. At this rate, we weren't going to get very far before passing out.

Our next stop was Horse Heaven Hills Brewery. We sampled some beers and watched a little football. Oregon was beating Washington, but it was just underway.

The next bunch of wineries we visited were Airfield Estate, Thurston-Wolf, Apex, and then Kestrel. That meant we sampled a lot of wine and ate a good amount of food. But we really sampled a bunch of wine.

Then we stumbled back to the Sunnyside Country Inn and fell asleep. That was at 5:30PM!

 Here's a nice picture of the crusher they have at Thurston-Wolf. I estimate that is worth about ten grand...possibly a bit more.
Here are few more pictures of the trip featuring the Amazing Spider-Man.
