Trip to the countryside...
On Friday we took a trip out to beautiful western Loudoun County to picnic and check out a newer winery in Bluemont. It was a lovely drive to Bluemont Vineyard...up a mountain where we were greated with 180 degree views across the valley between the Blue Ridge and Catoctin mountains. All you could see were farms, estates and lots of fields. The steep, winding and very cozy road up to the vineyard was an adventure but the views were worth it! The winery and vineyard is set atop the eastern slope of the Blue Ridge mountains at 951 feet. The wine was okay but the views were spectacular. Ben enjoyed playing on the terrace while we enjoyed a glass of wine and the vista!
