What Ingrid & Bob Have To Say About J Vineyards & Winery!

“Sharing a fun photo of my friend Tara and I enjoying J Brut Rosé this summer at Lake Cumberland, Kentucky. We visited J last May and did a very thorough tasting with Ron Clark (Mr. Suspenders) and enjoyed the wine and the company so much that we joined the Wine Club!  J was the most memorable of the trip, primarily because of Ron.  We are looking forward to coming out again for a visit to J!”

How long have you been a J Club Member?

Ingrid & Bob: Since May 2010!

What do you like best about Club J?

Ingrid & Bob: Getting J Wine Club shipments sent to our friends in Ohio, Jim & Tara Sheff (also J Wine Club Members), as wines can’t be sent to Kentucky, and most J wines are typically not available here in Kentucky retailers, which is sadly most of the J product line.

What is your favorite J Wine & Food Pairing?

 Ingrid & Bob:  My personal favorite is the Nicole's Vineyard Pinot Noir with basically anything. My husband Bob makes excellent homemade pizza and we'll pull out a bottle for pizza or to accent any other great meal with friends.  Being avid boaters, there can be a J Wine paired with appetizers before dinner. 

We have really enjoyed the Vin Gris with homemade Applewood smoked pork chops.

Special Interests you would like to share about you?

Ingrid & Bob:  We are avid boaters, tech junkies, and consumers of good food and wine, both at home and on trips cross country.  It's not uncommon for us to go out with close friends and have a four hour dinner as the focus of our night out!
