Pompous Ass

No, I am not talking about somebody I met.  It is the name of a winery along the shore of Seneca Lake.  The wine was fair…mostly pretty sweet so not to my liking.  The atmosphere was pretty ridiculous.  They had a whole collection of attire and whatnots with their logo and name and various play on words related to it.   I even had my picture taken …see.

We crossed paths with a limo full of tasters dressed like pirates.  It wasn’t their first stop, obviously.  They were silly and loud and thankfully not driving.  I was baffled by the attire but Brian clarified for me, it was “talk like a pirate” day.  Who knew?  I guess these gals took the day more seriously than most.

I tasted at Glenora Winery as well.  It was a little classier.  The tasting room overlooks the lake and they have a lovely small hotel right on the property.  We met a couple at the tasting who are regulars, four stays now.  It sounds like a nice quiet place to chill for a day or two if anyone is looking to do that.
