Today was a holiday Monday, so M and I did a little vineyard exploration and found a lovely winery restaurant and a good bottle of wine.
Lunch was delicious, the view was fantastic and we were rewarded with a gaggle of wild roses (also known as sweet briar roses) as we left the grounds. It was a good day.
It had just rained, and the scent from these roses was heavenly.
Happy Tuesday.

Do enjoy the rest of your day, Lynette.

I love the scent of roses after the rain. It always reminds me of my childhood and a visit we paid to my grandmother’s house. Sounds like you had an enjoyable day, Lynette. Love that pink rose!

I agree! They give such a fresh, rosy scent – it’s just beautiful. It sounds like the memory of your grandmother’s house is a lovely one. We did have a very enjoyable day with a great lunch and a pretty view. 🙂

Wineries do a good job of entertaining guests in ways that include wine. We have a winery in our family (distantly) and it’s always a fun afternoon.

We enjoy them very much and many have good restaurants. We like to find good bottles for our cellar, too. Fun that you have one in your family!

It was, and not too crowded yet. The rose bushes were everywhere growing in little patches between rocks, so they’re a hardy group. The scent coming from them was really gorgeous. Cheers.

It’s really a lovely spot. It was cloudy with rain showers but we could still see far up the valley. And the lunch was wonderful. Cheers.
