Vineyards at Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Maria, California, USA

From these green branches are the grapes that are grown to eventually produce wine. There were vines that stretched far down in rows over what seemed like acres of land. Great area to go wine tasting and be able to enjoy the vineyards just outside the tasting rooms.

Tres Hermanas Winery, Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Maria, California, USA

There is a stretch of miles and miles of vineyards located in the Santa Ynez Valley within Santa Barbara County. At the Tres Hermanas Winery, we met two of the owners and got the chance to try some of the wines they offered, while conversing with them about their daily flow of winetasters. Just outside the tasting room, there is a white picket fence that leads to a small grass area, complete with shady trees and a small stream. From here, we had access to the vineyards that the grapes came from. It was a long, but fun day!
