An Evening at a Local Winery...Melrose Vineyard, Roseburg, OR


I am so happy a couple really great friends of ours called and asked if we wanted to go to "Music on the Vines" at Melrose Vineyard, in Roseburg, Oregon, Umpqua Valley
last evening. They hold this for a few weeks in a row on Thursday evenings, and I havn't been in a while.
They used to hold it up in front of the tasting room / "Barn", a work of art !
However, last year, they opened their "event area" down below, which is used for all the parties and weddings, etc. It is really beautiful.
So, off we went at 5 PM. As usual, I was early, and as I know everyone so well, was greeted with big smiles, and great wines. Actually, I picked up my "last months" wine club order. A bottle of their delicious Pinot Gris, bottle of the Pinotage, and my personal "Fav", "Equinox" a delightful red.
The evening provided a great dinner of salad, chicken, garlic bread and of course, watermelon slices ! Along with this, great music, and lot's of friends, all for $12 !
Come on now, it can't get beter than that !?? Oh, let me tell you about the 2 bottles of Pinot Gris, and 2 bottles of Baco Noir !
I balanced the evening with a fine Padermo Cigar, followed by a great night sleep !
Ever in the area, check out Melrose Vineyard in Roseburg, Oregon. You will never be dissapointed.
Cheers,
Gary
