Spring has finally sprung in the Midwest. With that come the pilgrimages to Missouri’s wine country.

Today, Darla, Molly and I loaded up, and went out to enjoy the hill at Mount Pleasant Winery in Augusta. Just about a year ago, we took Molly there for one of her first trips, and it seemed right to take her again. Kelly, Mary and Chia joined us, and we had a great time. No chess, no cards, but plenty of fun enjoying the 72 degree weather.

I really enjoy Stone Hill’s Concord the best of all the Missouri wines. Mount Pleasant has a nice white port, and a spunky tawny port. We ended up drinking their sweet red wine throughout the afternoon.

In this kind of weather, any wine would be tasty!
