Wine from wide open spaces

We are in Walla Walla at the moment, yes, tasting a few wines here and there, and also kicking back in our little trailer. Having only visited these parts once before, some years back, we are both amazed at the beauty of the landscape here this time of year. While there are lots of vineyards, they seem somehow small compared to the mind-filling expanses of lime green, mountainous waves of wheat fields rolling across the Palouse. On the one hand it is easy to see how someone could imagine that the land had to have taken shape under water. But to expand that into a notion of how such waves could ever have existed is just breathtaking.

Ryan will be your host at the wine shop this weekend, and I think the selections might include a lively Provençal rose, a Chardonnay and a zin from California, and a couple of old favorites from France and Italy. Be sure to stop by! We will look forward to seeing you next week!
