Beautiful estate. Really, really good red wines. Relaxing wine-tasting.

Love, love this winery. We stopped here on our tour of wineries and were very impressed. Loved every wine we sampled and then sat down by the lake and drank a glass just listening to the trees. The estate is lovely and the staff so friendly. This is a must see if you like good wine and beautiful scenery.

Once a thoroughbred lay-up farm, you can still imagine stall doors on what is now the barrel rooms. The grounds are complete with a now-quiet exercise track, wonderful picnic areas, outside patios and rose gardens. All of this, plus some wonderful wines at reasonable prices.

This is one of the area's prettiest vineyards, with a lakeside picnicking for members and great views. The wine doesn't quite match the surroundings, however - some are drinkable, but only a few are worth taking home.

Bridlewood Estate Winery has beautiful grounds. We had a tasting and took home a bottle of their Voigner white wine. They have helpful and friendly staff. We are not expert wine aficionados but they made the tasting experience approachable and fun.

A winery we return to again and again for amazing Syrahs (Dusty Trails is our favorite variety every year) and beautiful grounds, perfect for a picnic while you taste.

Be sure to wander around the estate and see the horses. I love this stop when in wine country! Not all vineyards are the same, and not all tasting rooms are, either. I love the view and the estate - and relaxing here. The wine is fine, but not my favorite in the valley. Still, I don't like to miss... More
