A weekend trip to Rockbridge, Virginia lead us to explore the Rockbridge Winery. Breathtaking mountains and rows upon rows of grapevines enticed us to have a sit and enjoy the gorgeous scenery, glass in hand. A huge red farmhouse greeted us oozing twangy folk music. We entered the wine tasting room and were deleted to discover a white pinot noir. We made several purchases while we were there. 3 bottles of wine, a block of cheese and grape olive oil. The grape olive oil is said to be the best of all the olive oils for you. In comparison once we returned home, the calories were the same, but the saturated fat was much lower.
The wine was delicious, a fresh twist on the ordinary. I must say, we were slightly dismayed to discover the bottles could be purchased in Virginia Beach's Total Wine and More under the local section for a few dollars less. However, our disappointment vanished once the bottles vanished and we were delighted to know we could readily purchase more when desired.
