(NOTE: Images used here are uploaded directly from the winery website, and will be updated as soon as I have time to get back to take my own.)
This weekend I had the (increasingly) rare privilege of two consecutive days off (of course hubby was off on day two, but we take what we can get). We had some wine pickups to do, so we ventured out to Livermore for some much needed family time (yes, wine tasting counts as family time round here). On this particular trip, we decided to try three new (to us) spots, two of which I will talk about later:
* Bent Creek
* Big White House
* The Singing Wine Maker

About the Winery:
Big White House is my kind of winery. Small lot, big flavor wines in a very unpretentious tasting room with servers who know their stuff and enjoy what they do. They host two labels: Big White House and John Evan Cellars, Big White House carrying their traditional wines, and John Evan Cellars carrying their premium, small lot wines.
It is worth noting that there is no “big white house” on the premises, so don’t be looking for one. The Big White House of its name is the house in which they started making wine.
