The Mustard Museum was small but nice, and one could taste 100's of varieties. I purchased a Port Wine Cherry and a Raspberry Mustard to use on sandwiches.
The Wollersheim Winery was hosting, for the third year, a a Picnic Days event. We relaxed for a short time outside along with the grounds full folks who were eating, drinking and enjoying music by Street Life. To our surprise, the gal singer we know personally! We then went into the shop to sample some of the product and chose two distinctly different varieties of Rieslings, one said to be gentle, nearly-dry white with intense dried fruit flavors of mango and pineapple. It received high honor of "Chairman's Award" at wine competition in Riverside, CA. The other described as a Semi-sweet fragrant white with a well-balanced palate of aromas reminiscent of honeyed pears, figs and apricots. Named “Best Riesling $10 & Under”. Another purchase was a Sangiovese. We shall open the Sangiovese, which is touted as a Medium-bodied dry red with deep, rich, luscious flavors of black cherry. Aged in stainless steel to retain its youth and fruit. Enjoyable with grilled food. So that is our choice for today's consumption as we are planning a cookout for Father's Day supper.
Hope you have a good day also!
