Our Second Stop the B.R. Cohn Winery

8/6/08

We headed up route 12, and we stopped at the Valley of the Moon Winery, but it closed at 4:30 and it was 4:35 pm. We then went on to B.R. Cohn Winery, and WOW, I loved it. Walking up to it there was a very well taken care of "Woodie" it is a car from the 50's (for the younger group)... my grandmother told me about it. :) We tasted many wines and bought a Cabernet. I also got a shirt, Christine let me buy it. :) I was standing outside looking at all of the vines and Olive trees. It is very Mediterranean feeling, and I thought I was back in Italy, with my friends the Caponetti's www.casacaponetti.com I was thinking of Lorenzo Caponetti, and his love of his olive trees in Tuscania, Italy.

It was then off to Santa Rosa ,to plan for tomorrow and our visit to the Napa Valley.
