The central coast of California is one of the most diverse grape growing regions on the West Coast. Cool coastal breezes and hot inland temperatures combine over rugged hills and mountain to create dozens of microclimates suitable for a broad range of wine varietals such as delicate, thin-skinned Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to more tannic, full-bodied Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Your guide will begin with a pick-up at your hotel in Solvang, Santa Ynez, Los Olivos or Buellton.
