A Chilly Spring Festival for Nuyaka Creek

The last cold spell of Spring drastically reduced attendence at this year's Nuyaka Creek WineFest. Thanks to all of you who did brave dire forecasts to celebrate with us! Many new vendors made it this year and a new band... The Flashbacks. 2004 Oklahoma Spring Wine Festival pictures are here!

Due to the low turnout, there are still some fine rooted Merlot grape vines for sale. These premium cuttings are leafing out nicely now. Bring Mom by the winery this Sunday for a Mother's Day treat and grab yourself the makings of a backyard vineyard while you are here.

Those attending got to enjoy some great gourmet cheeses imported to Oklahoma by Council Creek Cheese. I could not resist taking home a wonderfully creamy, soft, goat's milk cheese called Dorathea and a wedge of Spanish Malagon with Rosemary. We stoked up a comforting fire, poured 30 different wines and enjoyed what turned out to be a pretty nice day despite the grim forecasts. Hope to see you all at this Fall's wine festival September 18, 2004.
