David Girard Winery Fall Art and Wine Fest, Eden Vale Inn B&B, Placerville

Eden Vale Inn Bed and Breakfast, Placerville, CA  is fortunate to have several wineries nearby.  The closest is David Girard Vineyards http://www.davidgirardvineyards.com/.   Today was a fine fall day in the Sierra Foothills.  Lighting seemed perfect for pictures of the Girard Vineyards, gardens and views looking toward Coloma on the American River.  I came away with a couple bottles of their 2007 Rose'.  The 2008 had just been released but was not quite aged yet.  The 2007 is perfect, citrus with the sweetness cut with just a slight tannic bitter.
