Our first stop was Waterbrook Winery. We weren't sure if there would be tasting fees at these wineries. What we discovered is it varies from one winery to another. Waterbrook Winery has a free tasting and has been around since 1984.
We tasted their Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Chardonnay Reserve, Melange Blanc (white blend), Melange Noir, Merlot 2004, Syrah 2005 and Meritage. Steve liked the slight oakey flavor of the Chardonnays. The Reserve was fuller and richer than the 2005. He also enjoyed the Melange Noir, which was smooth, but not outstanding to Kerry. Kerry thought the Meritage had several deep flavors. It should at $45 a bottle.
Besides a bottle of the 2005 Melange Noir, we bought some Garlic Grapeseed Oil for cooking at home. I learned that grapeseed oil has half the fat as olive oil. Once we paid, we were given a coupon for 15% off our next purchase. It was cute since it had a cork tied to the coupon. A great way to be unique.
