High Vineyards Trail

Very few words can describe the beauty of our hike today through hills of white and red grapes, forests and valleys and views of Italy and Slovenia that are just breathtaking. 7 miles.
Lunch was a picnic affair that had more food than the nightly dinners!  
Then we had a wine tasting at the castle followed by a tour of the cellar/bunker.  During WWI this bunker was accessed by a tunnel just outside of the home.  Today they have refurbished it and it is used for special occasions. The barrels are empty as that part of their wine production was moved to a larger location.  The bottles in here are part of the owner’s library of wines and goes back over 11 years.
