I should explain that I like drinking wine; had my share of tasting wine and analyzing them when I was in school.
However, by no means that I considered myself a wine connoisseur. Tasting impressions were based on my personal preferences!
With that said, the second day, we set out to check out another highly recommended winery Dunham Cellars.
The ground was beautiful and the tasting room had some beautiful art work by the wine maker.
We tasted several red and white wines, however, not too impressed.
Great aromas, great flavors with astringent and sour aftertaste; seemed to be the theme we were getting from most of the wineries.
The one wine I liked was the 2006 Merlot. It was really smooth with rounded flavors. Deep with its age and just wonderful to taste. However, at $75 a bottle, I passed.
Next, we went to Syzygy. Little tiny store full of Dutch colors blue and orange.
We tasted 4 reds and immediately fell in love with their basic Red Wine, 2008.
It had bright sweet fruit and smooth; made with Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Malbec and Merlot.
