2006 Black_Nova_II

Matthew and I spent the day visiting wineries throughout the Carmel Valley.  The area is simply breathtaking, with picturesque views at nearly every winery as the rolling hills blend into the clouds.  There are hidden gems to be discovered, too.  He’s a list of my favorites from the day.  I imagine more will follow after the Grand Tasting tomorrow.
