Sister's 40th birthday wine weekend

We stayed in Carlton, OR and went to four wineries throughout the weekend. They were so many wineries in this area, it blew my mind. All of the wineries we visited just built brand new, huge fancy, tasting rooms. Very different from Washington. The wine was very different too, and it was a lovely perfect experience that was awesome to spend with my sister.
Pop flight, sparkling wine
The views and the surrounding area were so amazing and beautiful.
My favorite way to eat
Our fancy 5 course dinner with wine pairings, family style on a farm in the middle of no where was beyond. We even took a selfie with the chef.
Hope you had a wonderful 40th birthday Sis! Love ya.

Happy 4th from the Sam Fam

Failed, but was good for a good laugh.
