On April 28, 2012 (my 22nd birthday) I went to Fork and Cork in Blacksburg, Virginia. My first (and definitely won't be my last) wine festival experience.
Fork and Cork from a distance. Taken with my camera.
I tried several wines and even bought my favorite. It was a day full of fun, friends, and wine, lots of it!
Some of the wineries I tasted wine from were:
Attimo Winery
Fincastle Vineyard and Winery
Naked Mountain Winery and Vineyard
Notaviva Vineyard
Mountain Rose Vineyard
Well Hung Vineyard
White Rock
Peaks of Otter
Savoy-Lee
& others!
I tried all the wines (red and white) from each winery I went to.
I even tried the SPICY wine from Peaks of Otter. It was absolutely terrible. I ran to the water station and chugged water. Not worth the "I kissed the devil" sticker. Should have gotten a medal for that.
My favorite wine I tried the entire day was from Mountain Rose Vineyard. It was one of their white wines, Sweet Mountain Rose. I bought a bottle of that and enjoyed sipping on that while in line to taste other wines.
Some friends and I enjoying wine.
