The Durango Wine Experience 2015

If you know me at all, you know I love wine. I even put it in my bio. So yeah, I love wine! I'm even part of the Secrect Women's Wine Association(Its actually not a real big secret). I was pretty excited that I got wine, gourmet food, and spare tickets for the whole weekend in exchange for my time. This is probably the only photography gig I felt comfortable drinking at. I defiantly wasn't used to drinking that much wine and then having to remember how to use my camera. The first night was the Walk About Durango where 13 businesses all housed different vineyards and distributors. I had to run to as many as I could in little under 2 hours. Thankfully my partner in crime aka, my mother, was keeping up and ready for action.

After the hangover settled (not really!), it was of to races again for seminars and the Grand Tasting main event. A bit of milder day. I was rather surprised seeing the hundreds of people that came out of the wino woodwork. I thought that I was the only one that loved wine that much! I was WAY wrong.

Wow. Did I mention I love wine?

I am happy I was able to partake in such a decadent and delicious weekend! Here are some highlights of the 9th Annual Durango Wine Experience.

till the next one,
