Finally did an official visit and tasting there (2 months ago).
Here are the 11 wineries my wife and I visited. All are westside wineries and in order we visited:
- L'Aventure *** {wonderful reds}
- Windward * {nice Pinot}
- Four Vines *** {!}
- Dover
- Tablas Creek
- Adelaida * [ala POOR service]
- Turley ***
- Justin {all hype?}
- Halter Ranch *
- Denner *** {D. is going places, catch the train now}
- Linne Calodo *** {wow!}
The top five (***) of these 11 are spectacular and the next three (*) even nearly as good as the first five.
Certainly we missed several excellent eastside wineries but c'est la vie! Next time.
