Winos

Being wine club members at the Benziger Family Winery in the Sonoma Valley, Paula and I stop by for free tours and wine tasting at both Benziger and Imagery wineries. Benziger uses the Biodynamic method of organic farming.  This is an extremely precise appellation worn by only a handful of wineries in the US.  The wine is delicious.

Stopping for lunch at the Imagery winery, we are entertained by orange dragonflies that flit about a water fountain beside our table like airborne goldfish.  We're the only people there and we feel like we own the place.

Lunch at the Imagery Winery run by Joe Benziger

We've bought groceries and make our own lunch.  It's chicken salad sandwiches on a baguette with heirloom tomatoes.  Kettle chips and antipasto accompany a 2015 Albariño, estate bottled at Imagery. We'd better not drink the whole bottle.  We want to get a place near the Chandelier tree in Drive-Thru Tree Park outside of Leggett, California so we can visit first thing in the morning!  It will be a long drive.
