Charlottesville Wine Weekend

Due to reasons beyond our control, we haven't been out on the wine trails since the last weekend of October.  We're heading for Charlottesville this weekend.  Despite our Virginia Tech bias, we love Charlottesville area wineries.  We're looking forward to meeting interesting new people and tasting some new Virginia wines.

BTW, during the last few months Diane and Eric made a half dozen or so unofficial revisits to several VA wineries.  We just wanted to mention a new favorite: General's Ridge Vineyard's GRV red.  It's a wonderfully fruity, dry red wine.  Another great new discovery was the Merlot Verdot from Well Hung Vineyard.  So sad that they won't be around this weekend.
