A great time was had by all aboard and, hopefully, vicariously by our listeners. The first show we've ever broadcast from out at sea. The Grapevine Radio crew climbed aboard the luxury motor yacht Papagallo II along with Meridian's winemaker, Lee Miyamura.
Chef/owner Leonard Gentieu cranked out great appetizers and sandwiches, Elmer (from Meridian Vineyards) manned the bar in the ship's salon and made certain everyone was well served with fine Meridian Wines. Don't miss their current Zinfandel, btw.
While we were out at sea Kathy called in from Mendocino where she was on wine judging duty.
Luckily Chris Taranto, Communications Director for the Paso Robles Wine Country Alliance, filled in as my co-host and did a great job. The photo above is Chris & Cliff broadcasting live from the bow of the Papagallo.
Also on board with us were Ron and Teréz Tyni owners of wildly popular Upper Crust Trattoria and Catering and Cynthia Vaughn & Jim Roberts of High Ridge Manor B&B. Jim also took the above photo of Chris Taranto and I.
We thank everyone involved for a great cruise and a fun show out on sunny Morro Bay.
