Galena Cellars Vineyard
After our adventure on the river we decided that we'd check into our motel and then head back into Galena for a tour and tasting at one of the local wineries, Galena Cellars. Emily and I went there last year where I was converted into a "wino" ;) The tour was really interesting and the tasting was great. So, I had to give up the keys after only two glasses of wine...what's your point? It must have been the empty stomach....yeah, we'll go with that.

| Grape vines along the road. |
 |
| This was our tour guide. However, his name escapes me. |
 |
| These will be yummy wine someday :o) |
 |
| The "cellar". These are the tanks and barrels that the wine is aged in. |
 |
| The bottling room. They bottle about 10,000 bottles a year. |
 |
| This the gift shop and tasting area. There is also a suite for rent upstairs. I'm afraid if we ever stayed here...we'd never leave! |
 |
| This farmhouse is for rent also. |
 |
| Our snack...YUM! |
 |
| Me with my Late Harvest Riesling....Mmmmm. |
 |
| Ronda wasn't as much of a fan of the wine as Em and I were. |
 |
| I think Emily was enjoying her drink. |

 |
| Pretty. |
