Wine on a Weekday

Went to James River on Fri. They have a lot of wines and many I like. Their tasting room is surprisingly small considering their location - get a lot of traffic. Very nice servers. LOVE the Chambourcin. It is good cold, room temp, and hot! Bought 3 bottles.
Next New Kent. We'd heard at James River that they were for sale - but not true. Love their White Merlot. Bought 2 bottles - Gave one to Nathan's girlfriend's parents.
Then on to Saude Creek. They had a small tasting room in Wmsbg over a year ago and we went there. The wife served us and we really liked her. Met husband 2x at festivals. The most recent time, I mentioned having been to their old tasting room and looking forward to seeing their new one. He barely responded to me. Not a great way to treat repeat business. Anyway, the building is beautiful and they have a view of the Pamunkey River. Nice tasting room and places to sit out back.
