Title: Edna Valley (for Bjørn J )
Post by: Gary on August 09, 2015, 07:47:35: This thread is for Bjørn J who enjoyed a bottle of wine from Paso Robles, California. Less than ten miles south of the City of Paso Robles is the Edna Valley AVA (American Viticultural Area). Here are a few snaps from the Edna Valley AVA.

It's my favorite also. (I got lucky on that one.) I forget to label #6 - Raisin Tree. The vine along the side of the Sextant tasting room is untended and in winter sports bunches of raisins.

Thank you Erik. During my wine tasting adventures I discovered you get longer pours if you fiddle with a camera during the pour. I have a lot of shots of pours. ;)

I would love to take you wine tasting. I am an expert of camera fiddle whilst pouring.
