Sometimes, it is nice to relax and enjoy the finer things in life after a long hard day's work. This bottle of excellent blended red wine from the Williamsburg Winery Williamsburg Winery cost me less than $8.00. Who said great wines had to be expensive?

I thought I would not like white wines, but I have to say, that this pinot grigio from Barboursville Vineyards is something I will definitely buy again!

I have to say this is a unique wine from Delfosse Winery. It is a Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc blend. The unique thing is that it does not taste like grapes but cherries. I would definitely buy this one again!

2021 Joy Red from CrossKeys Vineyards. To say I love this wine is an understatement. I would definitely recommend this wine to someone like myself who is just getting started with wines. This wine is mellow and has a wonderful fruity aroma to it.

A huge shout out to the entire staff Winery at Bull Run for making the ending of my day at Bull Run Civil War Battlefield amazing! Today was my first time at any winery and I will definitely be going back to enjoy the great wine and atmosphere!

#wine is key!

Another great wine from Chateau Morrisette Winery and Restaurant. It has a beautiful ruby-red color. It has hints of cherry and would make an excellent dessert wine.

My philosophy when it pertains to drinking wine is...Drink what you like and eat what you like. If you want to drink white wine with a steak dinner, go right ahead. If someone criticizes you for it, just ignore them. Life is too short.

I am enjoying this amazingly mellow Cabernet Franc from Blenheim Vineyards.
