Grapes of Niagara

It's harvest time in the vineyards of the Niagara Region. So Gail & I took a drive down there for lunch and a bit of wine tasting yesterday. We visited some well known wineries such as Inniskillin  and Hillebrand but they were too crowded. Lesser known ones such as Stonechurch and Pondview were both very welcoming and offered free tastings. We stopped for lunch at Ravine Winery, one of the newer wineries, located on the St. David's Bench. Sitting outdoors with a soft breeze to keep us cool, we were in culinary heaven. Thank you Chef Collin Goodine for a delicious lunch and a bottle of your best Dijon Mustard!
