Passport Day 1: Mill Creek

Our starting winery is Mill Creek. We enjoy being the first guests to arrive because it gives us a chance to talk to Dan and Ann…two of the volunteers who greet us. The theme at Mill Creek is Hawaii and some great deals 35% off a case of wine. Yippee!!!

 

Our welcome wine was the 2009 Estate Sauvignon Blanc. We also tasted the 2010 Dry Rose, 2007 Reserve Chardonnay, 2006 Kreck Family Zinfandel (Gold Medal Winner), and 2006 “Pocket Corner” Syrah (Gold Medal Winner). We had Huli-Huli Pork, Coconut Prawns with Mango Chutney, Coconut Rice with nuts and peas, and Hawaiian Fruit Skewers with raspberry yogurt dressing.

In addition to the Passport wines being tasted, we tasted the 2006 Reserve Merlot, 2004 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, and the 2003 Reflections Meritage.

Definitely a GREAT start to Passport weekend!
