This was a really cool place. There are 2 peninsulas here, Old Mission and Leelanua. Leelanua is the little finger of the mitten of Michigan. We crossed the 45th parallel several times and as all the wineries there like to point out, it is on the same parallel as the Loire valley in France, so of course, their wine is wonderful. I had to set a limit on no more than 3 wineries a day. Well, and 1 brewery-but that was with dinner, so it really shouldn't count.
On Old Mission peninsula you could stand at the vineyard and see water on both sides. Pretty damn cool. OK, maybe the wine had some to do with it, but it really beautiful there.
