of wine, or a cocktail. And sangria, which we make. Have lots of different recipes and depends on the season which ones we make.

TBS, we always have plenty of wine for when we have company and H likes both reds and white.

I know Far Niente is very high end, which is why I only bought it once and the cheapest bottle I could find.

His parents are lovely people and lovely to my son when he visited. They have classic cars that is open for visitors to see when at the winery. My kid loves cars so he was in 7th heaven.
