On the PLaza

DON'T WANT TO HIRE A DRIVER? FEEL LIKE PUTZING AROUND THE PLAZA?

 

...and taking in a few tasting rooms?

 

The silver-lining of Covid has been the entré of "The Parklet"...parking spaces in front of businesses converted into outdoor dining & wine-tasting space. Some of the tasting rooms have gone above and beyond to curate an inviting, beautiful space to enjoy their menus. 

I hope these never go away. Who wants to sit inside anyhow?

This gorgeous champagne lounge (with a cute patio) will make you feel like you've been transported to France.

The Drink: Leo Steen

I'm not religious but if I were, I'd thank God for Chenin Blanc and then kiss him on the forehead for Leo Hansen.

The BEST Chenin I've ever had and a collection of wonderful varietals he's crafted for you to taste.

Darling tasting room just a few blocks away from the plaza. SO worth the short jaunt over there.

The Harris Gallery ART + WINE Collection

An art gallery that's a wine-tasting lounge. With incredible wine too?! OMG.

One of the most beautifully inviting, bougie outdoor spaces on the plaza. 

Gorge art adorns the labels made from custom artwork found in the father/son gallery.

Celebrated wine-maker, Wells Guthrie, crafts premium rosé, chardonnay (94 points) & pinot noir (92 points) for tasting.

The King-of-Chenin, Leo Hansen, produces a Chenin (90 points) for tasting. 

A truly unique experience.

Sip some wine, take in the art...score a tour w one of the artists...

There is no perfect time to visit wine-country. Whether a warm day beckons you to outdoor-seating or a cold, rainy day draws you inside a cozy tasting room, you can't go wrong.  

Fall? Town is bustling with harvest.

Spring? New vintages have just been released, the valleys are green and the flowers are in full bloom.

Summer? Enjoy bottles of rosé and play some bocce with friends.

Winter? The town is quieter and reservations are easier to acquire.
