This idea was quickly elevated by adding to it a scrumptious tailgate picnic on route and a delicious wine tasting at Les Vents d’Ange Winery. Fall offers so many options for discovery.
Half of the fun is always in the planning and preparation. It not only has to taste good, but it must also look good.
