Blush Vintage

My dear friends and I went exquisite wine tasting last weekend. We explored the Wenatchee Valley and sipped on some of the best wine I've ever had. Exploring all the local wineries was such an intimate experience. We met the wine makers, toured the cellars, and even danced to a local band. The weather was absolutely perfect! Mid 60's, sunny, and a hint of fall crispness. I took advantage of the weekend to try some new assembles. They both turned out lovely, although next time wear flats when wine tasting. You tend to do a lot of walking through uneven ground and steps, plus after 8 wineries you won't be very stable in heels.

Here is a list of the local wineries we visited:
http://www.beaumontcellars.com/ :The Rose was my favorite
http://www.whiteheronwine.com/ : We all ended up buying a bottle of the Roussane
http://www.fairelepont.com/ : Tre Amore Red blend is fantastic
http://www.malagaspringswinery.com/: One of the best wineries, ideal red wines, good blends, and unlimited tasting. The owner (who looks like Robert Redford) shared many details of his wines and we had an excellent time.
http://www.baronesscellars.com/: Their Port is smooth and unique. A must is their Engelwein White Gluhwien, it can be served hot for the winter months.
