Aaron spotted a scene he recognized:

It’s the winegrape edition of American Beauty’s “You want to see the most beautiful thing I’ve ever filmed?” flying plastic bag.  See if you can fully understand the true beauty behind this very artistic short ‘film’.

If our vineyard guys are getting artsy on Day 2 of Harvest 2010, who knows what kind of videos we’ll get mid-October!

Thanks to John Brodie for spreading the word!

And something tells me there was more rum consumed than wine…

One of our Wine Club Members, Marc Kenyon, shared a favorite recipe with us.

It features his parents’ maple syrup, Adirondack Gold Maple Syrup, and either our Midnight Reserve or Zinfandel. He says both wines work really well!

Thanks Marc!
