There are a lot of wineries in the area worth a visit, including this one. I'm personally not a wine drinker, but I have to be partial to this particular winery as the Horton's have been family friends of ours since before my time! My sister and I still help work their annual pig roast in mid July. And Dennis Horton, who was a pretty awesome entrepreneur, had some pretty neat stories to tell!
