He found Cedar View Winery and Sequoia View Bed & Breakfast located at Sanger, California. A quick email conversation learned they would have room for us on the night we wanted.
We arrived mid afternoon and sampled a zinfandel and their award winning alicante bouschet.
Our flagship wine, Alicante Bouschet, is a Rhone style grape that is steeped in history and grown on-site. Alicante was the number one wine grape in California before prohibition and is unique because of its dark juice. Only 900 acres remain today in California.
Jim & Debbie were excellent hosts. |
Our room was the "Winemaker's Suite" which was located above the wine making area and the tasting room. The view from the balcony was beautiful and we spent a relaxing and enjoying couple hours there.
Beautiful roses were everywhere! |
Although a rural setting, we walked just a few minutes down the road to the School House Restaurant and Tavern -- which really did used to be an old school house built in 1921. The decor and food were both excellent and the chef did a special vegetarian dish for us since options on the menu were limited. It's so nice when restaurants/chefs take the extra time to do this this!
