Vine-to-glass on the Boutique Wine Trail
Say “cheers” in Yolo County, California, home to an unparalleled variety of locally owned, world class vineyards. Home to California’s newest American Viticultural Area (AVA) - Winter Highlands - along with three others, Yolo County enjoys a microclimate that allows for the cultivation of a diverse array of red and white grape varietals such as Petite Sirah, Syrah, Tempranillo, Malbec, Garnacha (Grenache), Sauvignon Blanc, and Albariño. The well-drained gravelly loam layered over dark red clay soil, combined with the cool, lingering coastal influence and ample sunlight, create the ideal conditions for producing wines of exceptional depth and character. Whether you choose a tasting room downtown or a winery with a sweeping scenic landscape, you’ll be treated to a world class wine experience. As a bonus, you’ll enjoy one-of-a-kind spirits like mead crafted from local honey and creative aperitifs.
“Indulge in the Authentic” is hosted by award-winning travel writer Aaron Millar, and produced by Webby-nominated Armchair Productions.
