Old Mission Penisula Wineries
On Saturday up in Traverse, my mother, her girlfriend, my boyfriend and I went to do some wine tasting. We hit up 5 wineries and had a great time. Got a little tipsy, and Jhun bought about 12 bottles of wine.
The wines are pretty good. Not the best all the time. But, you find some diamonds in the rough. In general stay away from any and all reds in that area. They don't grow them well, and they don't turn out that great. The Pinot Grigio's, the Rieslings, and of course the cherry wines were the ones to focus on.
But, if you are in Northern Michigan, check out wineries. One of my fav things to do.

Charlie,
You have an open invitation to visit me in wine country. There's about 50 wineries within an hour of my house, and some of them make damn fine reds.
Yakima Valley represent, mofo.
So if you're ever in the Northwest, let me know and we'll do a wine weekend.
Pat my brother?
Your mother is a dyke?
Oh Rieslings, how I love you.
No, not Pat your brother. Pat my friend from college. And yes, my mother is a dyke.
