Local Vintage

Casa Rondena is a local New Mexico winery, but looks like something right out of a European travelogue. It is still winter here, so there are no grapes, no leaves, no new growth, but the estate is absolutely magnificent, even in its "resting state".

We shot hundreds of shots, and deciding which one to use for my daily pic was very difficult. I thought this one grasped the situaiton perfectly...the wine glasses are empty. the vines are bare....but the beauty and the grandeur of the property is still ever-present.
