We started our day with a lovely breakfast at the hotel and then we headed out to Robller Vineyard and Winery. This is our favorite winery in the Hermann area and we were really looking forward to it. We are lucky that we got there when we did because they had to close early. So, we tasted wines and picked out a case to take home. Then, we got a bottle of wine to share outside.
We returned to town and stopped at a new winery, Sohns Winery and Wine Cellar, that opened in July. We did a wine flight and then got a bottle of wine to enjoy there.
We also enjoyed feeding their Highland Cows, Frieda and Fraya.
As we were enjoying the wine, three women came by and we ended up chatting with them. It turns out that one of them was the owner of the winery and also the Hermann Crown Hotel. We had a great time learning more about their businesses and laughing about all the funny things people do.
Eventually, we headed back to Hermann Hill for appetizers and then we went to dinner at Vintage Restaurant. All in all, it was a wonderful day spent with Andy.
Thirty years ago, two kids said, “I will.” It has been a roller coaster ride full of ups, downs, twists, sharp turns, and straightaways, but I would never want to ride that coaster without him. I love you, Andy! Here is to the next 30!
