Drew Winery in Boonville near a redwood grove

Some people, myself included, should never drink alcohol because their genetic code is booby trapped, and inevitably would do far less damage by consuming benzene. But then there are a lot of other people who seem to tolerate the substance well. We came into this place because my wife wanted some wine and it is located next door to one of the best Mendocino County Campgrounds imaginable. This area is awesome. Some guy came out and told us that they were closed, but asked us to come in anyway. He told us all about Pinot Noir grapes and it was very cool to see how passionate the dude was about his profession. I could see the smile on his face and the glint in his eye as he talked about his products. He sold her a bottle of Pinot that he said was named after his grandma and gave her half a bottle of pink wine free of charge. I have been to some other wineries under duress and just fucking hated that movie Sideways. I find the wine subculture to be nauseating and just blanch when someone starts talking Kendall Jackson, but this guy was really nice and the experience was just lovely.
