The Vibe: 

For first class concierge service, you can check into a high end hotel, or you can cruise through the entrance at Pine Ridge. The very helpful hospitality staffer can let you know about the various daily tours, which lead not only through the winery’s production facility but also through their storage caves, or the weekly food and wine pairing seminars. She can also direct you to the tasting counter, where you can try their Dijon Clones Chardonnay, or one or more of several hand crafted cabs. This winery’s club members have access to one of the more gorgeous garden settings in the valley (and that’s saying something).
