Our little trip to a local Vineyard..

We spent the day with my future sister-in-law and her husband.  We took a little trip about 20 minutes out to a local Vineyard in New Braunfels to do a little wine tasting!  We tasted about 8 different wines, from white to red, sweet to dry- they even had a little chocolate, crackers, and spicy jam to pair it with.

We had about the best Sangria (says Santi), that we have ever had, and we washed everything down with a Sweet Blanco Shooter.

The Sweet Blanco shooter was interesting.  It was a sweet jalapeno topped with some white wine.  There were specific directions we had to follow too..
1. Sip a little wine from the top- wait a few seconds
2. SHOOT it with the jalapeno
3. Chew the jalapeno 26.5 times while the wine is still in your moth
4. Swallow

It sounds hmm..not so good, but it was pretty delicious and like I said interesting. :)

After our tasting, we grabbed a few bottles of wine we liked the best and had a little scenic picnic with some good wine, cheese, and company.  It was the most relaxing, perfect Sunday!
