Recap: Wine and Cheese Show '07

This past weekend went really well with MV at the Toronto Wine and Cheese Show. We had a lot of great compliments from the show manager, vendors, patrons and fellow musicians at the show. Although my hands are a little torn up from all the playing, we had a lot of fun playing and discovering new wine. Thanks to all that came out to show their support.

Just on a side note, I found a California Cabernet Sauvignon that I really enjoyed. I plan on picking up a couple of bottles some time this week.
