Winning the award for most spirited Tasting Room Associates is à Maurice Cellars.
As you can see, we are suffering horribly here.
Are their wines good? Yes, yes they are. What’s more important? Your authors could relax and take in the view, contemplating synergy and their friendly staff enjoyed leaving the shady tasting room to deliver a sip of our next tasting.
So, the kids were a lot of fun, definitely the highlight of our visit here. (HINT: got a tasting room? Keep your Associates chipper!) In the “small town” vein, the gent with the golden hair says he was a server at a group dinner we enjoyed Thursday evening. Just goes to show what it takes to make a life in this world.
Since we have to back up our reputation for not pulling punches on this blog, for my winery picnic money, I would absolutely choose Walla Walla Vintners as a place to sit and enjoy, which is only walking distance away. Sorry, that place was frickin’ Winery Disneyland(tm) when we were there.
Meanwhile, there’s really no way around it. Those of us of a certain age can’t hear the name “Maurice” without this earworm. It’s worse for Joyce and I because we bought a Ford Explorer from good friends who they’d named “Maurice”.
Somehow, when it came down to it, I wasn’t able to determine the “Maurice” angle here. Pretty sure it doesn’t have anything to do with Space Cowboys.
