California is a special place in that it’s got something to offer just about anyone. There are beaches and forests for nature lovers, great cities for those who prefer a more urban scene, and some top-notch theme parks for anyone looking for some good old-fashioned fun. The state is also home to some of the world’s best wineries—many of which offer tastings that make for an ideal date-night experience for couples in search of a little romance.
Beringer Vineyard
Beringer is the oldest continually-operating winery in Napa Valley, and its history can be traced back to the 1870s. The vineyard is located on a stunning property featuring vast floral gardens and 19th-century architecture. They offer several different tasting experiences as well as property tours.
Elyse Winery
This vineyard specializes in small-production wines and unique blends, including some that are made using the old-fashioned method of stomping grapes by foot. The beautiful estate overlooking the valley is the perfect setting for couples in search of an intimate date.
South Coast Winery Resort & Spa
We love South Coast for a longer getaway when a one-time tasting isn’t quite enough. Tastings are held on the breathtaking family-owned property every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evening. The spa even offers treatments that utilize grapes grown in the vineyard!
