Black Eyed Susans and Abingdon Vineyard

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

These black eyed susan pictures were taken outside the Abingdon Vineyard and Winery. We liked the selections at this winery and were impressed with the affordable prices. Whereas many Virginia wineries charge over $20 for a good bottle of wine, Abingdon offers fine wines for less.
