Old cars and Wine

As a member of the Boot n Bonnet car club,
we get to enjoy many lovely outings,
 organized by our dedicated club members. 
On a crisp, but warm fall day, we headed out towards Tweed, Ontario, to visit a little gem of a winery, which reminded me of the story of  'the little engine that could':
Potter Settlement Wines
Despite many years of failed attempts, the Johnson brothers, Sandor & Robin, are winning awards for their efforts and hard work:
 Given that they are right at the edge of the Canadian Shield, it is hard to believe that anything grows....
.....but, alas....check out the grapes!
 We were treated to a tour of where all the magic takes place, but were not invited behind 'the big wooden doors', where the temperature controlled nectar was maturing.

The location was peaceful and inviting.....
....and the 'Late Harvest Frontenac Gris' was delicious....
More autumn outings coming up....
