Since there was no school Friday, he asked his boss man if he could take it off. The idea of sleeping in had a certain attraction, and he was hoping to get a start on a project he had in mind. But we'll discuss that later.
It worked out that the Young Daughter was visiting a friend. So The Fuzz decided to take His Sweetie for a visit to a Local Winery. He was trying to be sneaky, and not let her know where they were going, but at the last turn, she figured it out. Above, you can see the Wine Lady giving them the Wine Tour. The first pix is where they chop up the grapes.
Next, is the squisher, where they smoosh them. I guess doing it by foot is passe.
Then we move on to the place where the wine works off. Here's some of the barrels for aging the wine. They also have some stainless steel tanks in here. This room is all insulated so it can be kept cool.
This is a fairly small operation. They grow a lot of their own grapes, but they do have to buy some locally as well.
And then came the most important part of the tour, the Tasting Room. The wine was pretty good, and suckers that they are, The Fuzz and His Sweetie did pick up a few bottles.
All in all, The Fuzz and His Sweetie had a pleasant visit here in North Carolina Wine Country.
