This is my second time visit this place, first time I came here with Chris , we were looking for a mountain biking trail...That was hilarious :-)
not sure if this is the " mistry " trail we were looking for but I found the hiking trail at this time visiting , its call
Picchetti Ranch
Open Space Preserve!
The trail is hiding behind the tasting room exit, you will see the sign points out the " stevens canyon road"
The great thing to visit this winery is you can hike then wine tasting after.. :-) The historic winery complex, located next to the
parking lot, features an attractive house and ranch buildings, picnic
tables, and a collection of peacocks.....
The winery offers a variety list of wines from different regions, specially Zinfanel, Cabernet Savignon and Chardonnay are from santa cluz mountain, MUST try !!
one fortified wines called " MISSION ANGELICA" is a recognized CA " heritage crop", the Mission grape was the first cultivated by the Franciscan padres in the 18th century, and recent DNA analysis has linked it to the very rare Spanish varietal" Listan Prieto"This vintage wine is high in sugar and has an alcohol content of 17.3%~~ by www.picchetti.com
I got one bottle to share......served chilled over ice with a twist of lemon, Delizisos !!!!! :-)
