Speckle Rock Winery reopening

​We made it out to another winery this weekend, this time going to the Highland Valley region to drop in on Speckle Rock Winery.  It is located on Highland Valley Road in Escondido about midway between Pomerado Road and Route 67, up in the hills.  We sat on the back side of the winery building, outside (of course), well-separated from the other patrons with a great view as shown in the picture below.

​As with most of the wineries, we could only purchase bottles or glasses of wine – no regular wine tasting.  If you recall my report on our first visit to Speckle Rock, I was impressed by their 2018 Pinot Noir.  Well, it has been released so naturally I bought a glass.  Pricey at $15 for a glass, but that is their normal tasting price so not much change there.  My wife tried their Grenache-Merlot-Sangiovese blend.  Worked out perfect – I really preferred the Pinot Noir, and she preferred the blend.
They had a pretty good crowd at widely separated tables, as required.  No hanging in their small tasting room, of course.  Like Principe di Tricase, Speckle Rock has brought in caterers to provide patrons with food choices.  For our Sunday visit they had Tuetano Taqueria (see picture).  I enjoyed a very good carne asado street taco.  Oh, the had music as well, beginning at 4 PM.
