Westport Rivers Vineyard and Winery

Saturday morning and it wasn’t raining and much better you could see blue patches on the sky. We took our Wine & Cheese Trail Guide and we were ready to taste local wines and sparkling wines. We thought that with our guide and our GPS we were able to find all the vineyards, but wasn’t easy, next time I’ll check all the web pages to ensure the localization. Since the countryside is full of color we didn't mind get lost. Beside of our fail to find some places we had a lovely wine taste at Westport Rivers , a vineyard that we didn’t chose to visit but went we saw the sign at the road we decided to go in.

The first thing that you see when you follow the road is an old truck, a Ford truck getting older with the time, the next thing is a house guarded for a bug tree, and the barn or brewery on your right. We came in the house and walked around seeing the shop the bar area and the art the exposition on the second floor. We took a tour with a very pleasant girl who explained to us all the wine process from pick up the grape to label the final bottle.

Inside the barn you can see how the bottles are placing waiting the correct time to be labeled and being ready to chair celebrations, couple dinners, special occasions and to everyone who likes a glass of wine without another desire to taste a good wine.

We returned inside the house and began our wine tasting. The entire group from the tour placed round the tasting bar ready to taste the wines come from the vineyard that  had just been visited. All the time you are surrounding by a familiar ambiance that make you feel very comfortable. We taste 8 wines, with their respective explanations and recommendations.

My favorite wine was The Pineau de Pinot one, a dessert wine full of flavor, they use distillation and fermentation to create this wine, is a caramel color wine with fruity touch when you drink it.

We only had time to visit this vineyard but we are already thinking to visit some more with shop on a nearest time.
