Cedar Ridge Winery

 Yesterday, I asked my significantly better half out for a date. For some time, I've been wanting to visit the Cedar Ridge Vineyards, Winery & Distillery near Swisher, Iowa. You can learn more about them by clicking here. In addition to some reasonable wines, they make an interesting bourbon, a dark rum, and two different brandies, one made with Iowa apples.

We sampled the various wines and spirits, some of which we/I quite liked, and so we purchased several bottles to take home with us. Their tasting room is very pleasant, and they offer a number of different luncheon options (and a prime rib dinner on selected evenings). We tried their wood-fired pizzas, which reminded both of us of some of the better pizzas we have enjoyed on our visits to Italy. Of course, a bottle of wine with lunch was in order too. Plan to go there with us sometime when you are with us!
