Now wouldn't that be fun, Nutty! Indeed, the wine is an added bonus ... it's delightful to uncork a bottle and remember the fertile earth from where it came!
Oh yes, Marnie, especially the sparkling wines from L. Mawby,, perfect for the holidays. Willow Vineyard is indeed charming with a stunning view. When we were there, they were pressing grapes ... very interesting (should have included those photos)!
Beautiful photos and montages.

We return each autumn, Lindalou, amazed with each new offering in both wine and new vineyards. We are indeed blessed to have this gift ... after all, we are the 'Great Lake State' :)
How sweet, dear Frances! Because of my great passion for this beautiful state, I deemed myself a self-proclaimed 'ambassador' :)
