All Things Wine

This past Friday Tim and I decided to head to Vinoklet.  We've talked about it for awhile and got the push to go from my brother and sister in law.  The four of us, along with my parents, headed on over for some food and wine.  It's really nice there, casual, and I think a great price for what you get.  We had a table that overlooked the vineyard and gazebo and got to watch the sun start to set.  Included in the cost is a wine tasting, a bottle of your favorite, dinner, desert and spending as much time as you want enjoying the vineyards, bocce ball area, cornhole etc...  We started with the tasting and got to try 7 wines.  They only disappointment was that we didn't get to try the Cab.  I am a red wine lover and cab is my favorite, so I would have enjoyed that.  However, all the wines were pretty good and Tim and I Decided to go with the Merlot.  Merlot is not usually my favorite, actually it tends to be my least favorite red, but it was pretty good and called the Cincinntus.  Then we got salad, roll and picked our meat.  You could chose between Steak, Shrimp, Salmon, Cod, Pork Chops, Chicken or Tilapia.  Tim and I chose the Salmon and Shrimp.  You grill your own which was fun and then got our sides.  Green beans, mixed vegetables, mashed potatoes and corn.  It was all you can eat, but we only ate once.  You also got desert.  It was all really good.  We then walked around a little and checked out the grounds before leaving.  I would definitely recommend.  These aren't great pictures, but they'll have to do.  http://www.vinokletwines.com/
