Dragonette Cellars- We absolutely LOVE this winery!  It was our second time visiting them and they have both been great experiences!  And the tasting room is super gorgeous & minimalistic so Im not worried about Ashlyn getting ahold of anything breakable!  I couldn't say anything negative about any of their wines!  So Yummy!   


Ken Brown-This winery was recommended to us a long time ago but we just finally went this last year.  The wine is fantastic and the employees are always so nice!  Going to see them is part of the experience!



Carr Winery-This winery is so much fun!  Wine barrels sit in the "cave-like" tasting room that are adorned with art from local artists!  Its so pretty in here!  And have you discovered this new "Wine Growler" trend yet?  no?  Well, its awesome and they do that here!!!  Love Love Love it!!!



Carhartt Vineyard-This has to be the smallest little tasting place we have ever been to but it is by far our favorite!  They have a little outdoor area with a coy pond and these amazing adirondack chairs with built in wine glass holders!  Oh yeah, and the wine!  OH THE WINE!!!  Rose all day here for sure!!!!


Lincourt Vineyards-Sitting on the most beautiful farm just outside ofLos Olivos, this is such a relaxing spot!  I highly recommend a tasting then enjoy a glass outside on the lawn and enjoy the amazing view!
 

Foley Estates Vineyard & Winery- Talk about Estate!  This place is huge!!!  And Ashlyn had a blast paying on the real horse saddle they have in their tasting room lobby!  We stopped in, I had some wine & we all shared a cheese plate!  





Bottlest-Winery-Bar-Bistro-Oh-Em-Gee!  How did we not know this place existed before this?!?!?!?  It is amazing!  They do make their own wines (I had 2 of their Sauvignon Blanc's), but they also offer a bunch of other options.  And everything is "pour it yourself" style!  It's really easy to let that add up pretty quickly but its fun to try different things.  And have I mentioned the food yet?  SOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!  Everything was delicious!  I highly recommend trying it out if you're in that area!  



​Firestone Vineyard-hmmm...well, we didn't have the greatest experience here but Im sure it was just an "off day" for the employee serving us.  We did end up buying a couple of bottles of wine but I'm not in a hurry to go back anytime soon. 


​
Mosby-This little winery is super unique for the area!  Their varietals are very different than what you traditionally find in this area!  I can't even remember all the names but they were Italian & really yummy!  We took my husbands mother & grandmother and Ashlyn had an absolute blast "cheers"-ing with everyone!
