Wineries

On one of our Saturday's off in NY, we went to tour some of the wineries in the upstate. The wine country there is so beautiful. It is right along the finger lakes. We toured two of the five. The way it works is you pay two dollars and get to pick eight wines that you want to try. We had a blast. We tasted some great wine, toured the wineries, and met some very nice New Yorkers. We met a group who all had son's on the same hockey team. After one of the tastings, they invited us to drink some wine, eat some cheese and other snacks, and hang out with them outside by one of the lakes.  They were from Rochester and we ended up talking with them for hours. They were fascinated that we were from SC. One of them even asked "Is it true they have those 'buffet restaurants' down there?" 

We didn't know this guy. He just wanted to take a picture with us...

This is where they process the grapes.

Stephen was fascinated by this thing, something about the chemical process of something...
