California Blends under the stars.

We got very lucky with favorable weather for our annual backyard feast! Thanks once again to Doug and Nancy for hosting a terrific evening in their backyard. We were five couples out of our eight man crew. So we missed Chris, Alex, Rey, Mayra, Raj and Vani. But the folks that could make it were treated to some amazing red blends from makers like Booker, Foxen, Hess, Orin Swift and Hall.

I took LOTS of photos -- so scroll down an relive a lovely night! (Or see what you missed!)
