Black Ankle Vineyard - Mother's Day

Mother's Day started out with a great brunch at Yellow Dog Tavern with my family, where I forgot to take any pictures.  ugh!

It continued later as a smaller group of our brunch crew headed out to Black Ankle Vineyards in Mt. Airy, MD. 
The tasting building is designed to be extremely eco-friendly.  The walls are insulated with straw and check out the live roof - love that!  (check out their website for more info and photos of the entire building process)
All moms received a complimentary tasting and a gerber daisy.
My grandmom decided to give me all of her tastes of wine, so I had a double tasting.  :)
After trying all the wines, we decided to enjoy a bottle of their award winner, Crumbling Rock, out on the patio.
Warm, crusty bread and cheese from a local creamery.
Great view.
Can I live here?  and drink wine, eat bread and cheese all day?  Please?
What a great way to spend celebrating mother's day!  (or any day for that matter)
