1. Southern California Wine Tours: Great Wineries in
Southern California
By Summer Wilde www.wines-vineyardtours.com
You might be surprised to know that Napa Valley and Sonoma County, although
they are world-renowned wine regions, are not the end of California wine
country. Southern California wine tours open up a whole new world of wine for
the people who are lucky enough to discover and make the effort to explore the
area. If you're a wine lover, then you will want to visit the wine growing areas of
Los Angeles, San Diego and Temecula.
Wineries in Los Angeles
When you think of L.A. you probably think of Hollywood... not vineyards. But
L.A. is home to a number of small, family wineries that are definitely worth
checking out. They tend to be spread out in all directions, especially from
downtown, so plan on making several day trips if you want to visit them all. Sip
Merlot, Chardonnay, Reisling, Cabernet Sauvignon and others in all directions...
the choice is yours!
Wineries in San Diego
San Diego sees a ton of tourists each year, but most of them aren't coming for
the wine... and they are missing out.
You'll find many wineries tucked in to the foothills around San Diego county. The
towns of Warner Springs, Escondido, Ramona and others are home to some
wonderful local wineries. The historic town of Julian, for example, has six
wineries for you to explore. You can enjoy them all on a day trip, or spend the
night in one of the several bed and breakfasts.
Wineries in Temecula
From San Diego, head north for about an hour to experience the gorgeous
countryside of Temecula. Temecula is a wine area, so you can sip your way
through several different wineries all in one day. The best way to experience this
area is to stay the weekend so you can explore not just the wineries, but the
area itself. This is a rural California village in all its beauty, with charming
wooden sidewalks, sparkling lakes... and of course, lots of opportunities to
browse for antiques. While you're there, take in a few rounds of golf, explore the
historic buildings, and even go for a hot-air balloon ride. Temecula is a great
vacation destination, whether you are a wine lover or not.

through.
