Wednesday Weekend Warm Up (Minnesota Style)

After a week long trip back to my home state, Minnesota, I’m beat!! Instead of skipping a blog post or two (which I was seriously thinking about, but who am I kidding…I can’t stay away!), I thought I’d share with you a few snapshots of a local winery that my Mom, Dad and I visited the last night I was in Minnesota and share with you a couple of my favorite bottles that we tasted. 

Carlos Creek Winery is located just outside of Alexandria, MN and a few miles from my parents home. It was my first visit there and let me tell you, I was totally impressed! Initially, I was floored that a winery even existed in Minnesota, considering the harsh winters that are well known throughout the North. I now live in Los Angeles, California and the mild winters and warm sunny summers are the perfect host to vineyards growing throughout the golden state! 

The grounds, facility, and decor are a feast for the eyes and you won’t find a friendlier staff than the crew here at the winery! Customer Service is always a top priority in MN and MN is kind of known for being home to the nicest people in the country; the team at Carlos Creek Winery reaffirms my belief in this statement. If I were to ever live in MN again (highly unlikely, sorry MOM!), I would be a frequent visitor of the Carlos Creek Winery, not only for their tasty wines, but also for the live music they have every Saturday! 

My two favorite wines that we tasted are the Minnesota Nice Hot Dish Red which is “their best-selling and most award-winning wine is also their sweetest red. The bold taste of Valiant comes through with hints of zesty blackberry that perfectly balance the sweetness. Perfect with Tater Tot Hot Dish, it also drinks well with leftovers!” and also their Apple Blueberry Wine which is “their most popular apple blend. Their own blend of Apple wine with blueberries added. A sweet summertime favorite!”. Even my parents, who are NOT wine drinkers loved both of these bottle and purchased them to keep in their liquor cabinet for a special occasion! If interested, you can purchase them online here!
