alfaropic.jpgThis Saturday, July 18, from 11-5pm, take advantage of the Summer Passport winetasting trek through the vineyards and cellars and tasting rooms of 50 Santa Cruz Mountain wineries.

Alfaro’s Family Vineyard, in pastoral Corralitos, is only one of the stops you can visit – the $40 tasting passport gives you access to all the wineries, on all four Passport weekends throughout the year.

The Passport – unlike the one issued by the US government – never expires. And this is a great opportunity to visit small, artisanal wineries, such as Windy Oaks, that are rarely open except by appointment. Visit the SCMWA website for full details. [photo by PattyHinzImagery.com]
