Summer wine by maggiemae

Summer wine

I think this photo, even though out of focus - intentionally, gives the feel of summer and wine and relaxed living. It was at the back of an old building renovated to be a small cafe and served local wine. Here we chose from the menu, venison sausages, potato mash and onion gravy with lightly warmed local tomatoes! It was fabulous and we will choose this little place again. It was on the way from one city to our home.
Yes, you really have captured a mood here Maggiemae

The mood is evoked so well here Maggie, and the focus adds to it even I think!

@pamknowler so where are you, Pam? Is this possible?

@bulldog You could bring your little ones to help advertise this apple? It is a peacegoodnonsuch! That really is a name and really is their type!

@deburahiru We hadn't actually had this wine when I took the photo, Deb! Afterwards I took lots of photos - none which I want to show here!
