- Wine Tasting Outside of Orange County -

Wild Coyote Winery ~ B&B

Estate Vineyard/Winery ~ Bed & Breakfast (B&B) located on the Central Coast of Calif. Their philosophy is to be a small and an estate winery, but be the best at what they do. To them, quality is more important than quantity, and up here it's all about pounds (of grapes) per vine not tons per acre. Which makes it so perfect for their “House-of-Reds” Zinfandel, Syrah, and Merlot varietals. Wine tasting daily from 11-5, and B&B room reservations available, just call…
