The Pahrump Valley Winery is attached to our campground. It is a really lovely spot in the desert with lots of new grape vines and their own bottling operation. 
Gretchen Loken is one of the owners and a very delightful lady, just full of information and very enthusiastic about wine and people. She said, "how can you not enjoy what you are doing when you get to meet people and drink wine all day".
This is an interesting quilted wall hanging that I wanted to share especially with my quilting buddies. (It was machine quilted.)
As well as a good variety of reds and whites, the Winery sells a variety of "things that go with wine". The gift shop adjoins the wine tasting area. I got an education in fruity versus dry. It was fun but after sips of at least 14 different wines, I felt a little fuzzy. 
Surrounded by mountains, this is a lovely spot with lots of desert around. If you look hard through the trees, you can see the grapevines. Sunday the Happy Travelers will be traveling to Harrah's in Las Vegas for a new experience. More later.
It looks like a great time as always! So which wine was your favorite?
ReplyDeleteWe bought a bottle of Peak White (white) and a bottle of Burgundy (red). I believe the Burgundy was my favorite but I liked the Peak White a lot.
