		<description><![CDATA[Wow, 25 wineries during the 3 day first weekend of the Barrel Tasting event.  We spit and dumped so ended the day quite sober.  We also preserved our palates by avoiding the barrels and focusing on finished wines.  And we spent way too much money on wine for our budget.  Our budget should be focused [...]]]></description>

Besides the pleasent ambiance and very friendly staff they have a nice choice of wines available.  In the last few days we&#8217;ve [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This past weekend we finished off a bottle of Holly&#8217;s Hill Vineyards El Dorado 06 estate Grenache.  Medium body with an earthy Pinot-like nose and a fine lasting finish.  It has just a light hint of sweetness but is not a sweet wine at all. Nice and dry. So what&#8217;s the story about a visit [...]]]></description>
