Framing complete. Tomorrow I rough in the rest of the electrical, and hopefully finish the vapor barrier. #ProjectWineCellar
Three walls framed, one to go. But that will have to be another weekend. #ProjectWineCellar
So that was our trip. Right now I’m sitting on a plane awaiting take-off, so next stop MSP, then IND, then home!
The Mellon Meyer tasting was shorter than expected, so we headed to HiFi Wine Bar for a tasting from Martin Woods (who owns the bar). The wines were nice, but the bartender was especially good—friendly and knowledgeable. https://www.martinwoodswinery.com (McMinnville, OR)
Mellon Meyer does things a little differently than most wineries in Willamette Valley—they only do sparkling wines. It was a nice break from all the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay that we had tasted over the weekend.
Our next tasting was with Bobby Rowett, owner of Mellon Meyer. Bobby was working with the Goodfellow crew that day, so we just had the tasting there at Goodfellow. https://www.mellenmeyer.com
