The California Winery Experience is your insider’s guide to wine tasting in Northern California. The site focuses on wineries outside of the famed Napa Valley and turns you on to some gems in the “South Bay”. This site was inspired by the Santa Cruz Mountains Appellation, a beautiful but often overlooked treasure of California wine country. The number of wineries in this region just waiting to be discovered is amazing!
Wineries are rated using a 5 star system for the following elements:
Wine (obviously!)
Tasting Room Ambiance
Service
Shopping
Family Friendliness
Views
Each review also includes the price range of available wines, things not to miss, watch-outs, personal favorites and directions on how to get there.
We hope you enjoy this region as much as we have.
Remember… life is too short to drink bad wine!
Salud,
