Sharing Nebraska Goodness

Family

Perhaps not everyone is aware that viniculture, the growing of grapes and production of wine, is a feature of all fifty states. Although we’d known that, it’s through our membership in Harvest Hosts that we’ve developed a deep appreciation for wines that hail from unexpected places. And for the past few years we’ve made a practice of bringing home some nice examples of some of our discoveries to share with our friends, Steve & Mary. This evening we shared some Ringneck Red from Mac’s Creek Winery in Lexington, Nebraska. It showed that excellent wines can come from unexpected places and for us it was a reminder of our delightful stay at the winery in August.

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
