Oh, their vines had color! I was hoping to see some nice reds on our vineyard walk but, all we had were yellows.

It sounds like all of the walks were great, but Michel-Schlumberger did it up EXTRA special. It was easily a top ten morning for me. Glad I didn't try and stick to my guns on my original choices. :)

AND their wines were great as well!

The colors were really great. Not just one red, but some were almost claret. We don't get to see all these colors in the Texas Gulf Coast, because leaves rarely turn in our area. It was truly beautiful.

Loved the references to what always remains "home" to me. I enjoyed the article and the pictures.

I loved the walk through the wooded part. Especially since the temperatures cooled at least 10 degrees!

It helps to take lots of pictures, then I can fill in what my memory alone might forget.

I was on the walk and your post is excellent! You were working girl! :)
The picnic we had was fabulous. The two wines served were a Cabernet Sauvignon and a Merlot. I have since returned, and met with Judd who showed me around the tasting room and cottage (there is a master suite and a full kitchen for VIPs) I bought several bottles of wine and recommend this winery for everyone who has the opportunity to go to Dry Creek. Btw, it's easy to get to through the "front" gate.

Thanks! Sorry for my tardy reply. I can't wait to visit again. Lucky for us, I did find a Michel-Schlumberger locally -- but we're looking forward to seeing Judd again in a couple weeks.

Amy, Thanks for sharing this story about your excursion during the Wine Bloggers Conference. I am planning to attend the conference this year. This will be my first time attending, as I am a relatively new blogger on the block! Dennis Grimes recommended I click over to your blog and I am glad I did!

Thanks Bill. Dennis is one cool dude! If you look carefully in the background of the Sebastiani glasses in our calendar, you may be able to see him, as he was sitting directly across from us when I shot the picture! Looking forward to meeting you in July.
