An Afternoon in Wine Country - Friday March 13, 2009

During the afternoon of March 13, I made my way from El Dorado Hills CA to Santa Rosa CA, stopping at a few wineries along the way.

I left the hotel around 11:00 and made my way to Napa around 12:30.   My first stop was Etude Winery.

From here I went to lunch and then walked around Target.

Back on the road again heading to Sonoma.  I stopped at the Madonna Estates Winery.  Didn't have any wine here but stopped to take some pictures and walk around a bit.

 Awards won by the winery

 Back in the car and down the road a bit more I found another (you guessed it) winery.   The Folio Winery.

And the last winery of the day - Nicholson Ranch.

After leaving Nicholson Ranch, I made my way into Sonoma where I stopped at Sonoma Traintown but that's another photo essay.  

I arrived at my cousin's house a little after 4:00.    On Saturday we toured around the area and stopped for more wine.  When in Rome.... or Sonoma County.

Stayed tuned for An Afternoon in Wine Country - March 14 and Sonoma Traintown.
