Living in Southern California has its perks. Not the least of which are our Vineyards in Santa Barbara County. We have been spending time traveling to the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley. Discovering all the small wine makers and vineyards has been a true joy helping to make the transition into our 40's a little easier. Along the way we have shared these places with our family and friends and now wish to share them with you.
The wines being produced are nothing short of spectacular, we are not trained in wines but we know what we like. The three wineries we want to share first are Tres Hermanas, Bridlewood and River Bench wineries. We discovered these gems while on a belated anniversary getaway while staying at the Hadsten House ( great wine and cheese hour and jacuzzi) in Solvang. We picked up the wine guide tour map and started our self guided tour. Driving through Los Olivos and stopping at the Los Olivos Grocery Store off Highway 154 we picked up some great imported cheeses and sandwiches from the deli. By the way the Grocery store is stocked with gourmet cheeses, breads and just about anything else you could want to eat. During the summer they have a Santa Maria BBQ going for some fantastic tri-tip, if you couldn't tell we love good food as much as wine!! Now for the wineries....
