wait, is this a rerun?

No!  We actually went winetasting again today!  There was a fundraising event for the Mt. Eden Vaulting Club at Cooper-Garrod Vineyards, so Kim, her mom, sandollar17, and i sandwiched our attendance of the event between visits to Picchetti and Thomas Fogarty (i've been a fan for some time, but i only found out today that Fogarty was a doctor).  In addition to Cooper-Garrod's wines, they were also pouring wines from the The Winery at Holy Cross Abbey (they have a fugly Flashified site, which comes with an unmutable soundtrack of chanting monks), a Colorado winery (yes, there are a few wineries in Colorado), which were quite good, but unfortunately not for sale because they didn't bring enough (duh).

Wednesday was elmuchacho's first time winetasting, and today was sandollar17's first time as well.  The ladies had to patiently put up with me as i ended up working on my laptop (plus EVDO card) all through brunch.

Picchetti has peacocks.  Don't believe me?  I have proof!

That wouldn't be funny at all.
Because John AND Tom Fogerty were in Creedence.
Both. Two. Brothers. Fogerties.
(And I'm a big John Fogerty fan.)

In fact, Fogarty had a merlot made from Lodi grapes that we almost bought.

Oooo. Delta vineyards rock! (I think Lodi is technically in the Delta.)
