Vineyard Day – Saarloos & Sons
This annual event gets better every year. 2017 marks my 4th trip to Windmill Ranch to experience breakfast in the vineyard with the Saarloos Family.
Back inside the tasting room, the same worn, homey feeling envelops the brightly lit space. There is absolutely no formality here, just a friendly crowd at the tasting bar, lots of interesting items somewhat casually displayed for purchase, and a tasty a great spots outside with tables.

Here I am having my Lucy moment at one of my favorite wineries. Something you just have to do once, although wearing white capris to a grape stomping wasn't a well thought out wardrobe choice.
Although I may not always be able to tell you the difference between a Malbec and a Mourvedre, there is no better weekend trip than one spent in wine country. So join the adventure as I explore California's wineries in search of interesting design and great visual experiences. Wine tasting will definitely happen, but will not be the main focus of my posts.
Do you have suggestions for winery visits? Please let me know via Facebook or Twitter - just look for Vinotecture.
