What more can one ask for on a crisp fall day?  I attended the Raggaefest at Linganore Winecellars and had a wonderful time.  Just a short drive from the District, the ride to the location was breathtaking.  It takes you on a drive through the country where the fall trees are in full bloom.  When you arrive at Linganore, you have a sense of family.  Surrounded by wine lovers, you immedietly take your seat on the lawn and begin to enjoy the festivities.   The first stop at this event was to sign-up for the tour.  This tour will take you through the history of Linganore.  At the end of the tour, you are able to enjoy a tasting of seven wine options.  If that is not enough, take a trip to the huge tent outside and enjoy more samples.  Once you had your share of samples, you are able to purchase a bottle to enjoy while you make your way back down to your seat.  As a note, don’t worry about running into overpriced bottles, each one is very affordable.  While I ususally lean toward white wines, I ended up purchasing a red deciding to break out of my comfort zone and try something a little new.  Let’s just say, I was not disapppointed.  I recommend taking a trip to wine country where you will be able to try them all for yourself!
