Our New 2022 Cruise – the Entire Rhine River
We are cruising again. We will cover almost the entire navigable Rhine River from Amsterdam, Netherlands to Basel, Switzerland. Our stops will include Amsterdam, Cologne, Rudesheim, Heidelberg, Strasburg and Basel. Some of these are places we visited on our first cruise in 2019 and are very much worth a return trip in 2022. We also have the opportunity for time in Amsterdam, Cologne and Basel as new locations.
There is also a great post-cruise trip to Lake Como in Italy that is available if you want to extend your European vacation.
The link to our cruise website is above. More details about the trip and our cruise flyer will be available shortly.

New Release: 2020 Muscat Canelli Santa Barbara County
New Release: 2020 Muscat Canelli ~ Santa Barbara County
Try our newest sweet wine, 2020 Muscat Canelli. This wine replaces our Moscato that sold out in September, but this wine is lighter and less sweet. Rather than a dessert wine like the Moscato, this is more of a pool or patio wine.
Muscat Canelli still combines lots of great fruit with just the right amount of sweetness. It is bottled in clear bottles that show off its beautiful light gold color.
Enjoy.
New Release: 2019 Il Re Santa Barbara County
New Release: 2019 Il Re ~ Santa Barbara County
Try our Newest Release: 2019 Il Re. Another opening on our wine list gives us the opportunity to release our 2019 Il Re. Il Re is an Italian blend that includes two grape varieties from the same Region (Piemonte). They are Nebbiolo and Barbera. Our Il Re is always very popular, which is why we are frequently sold out. It is back on our list after a long absence. This version is already receiving great reviews.
Il Re combines the fruit and creaminess of the Barbera with the fruit, acid and tannins of the Nebbiolo. This is a dark medium bodied wine, with good color and robust fruit flavors.
Americans think of all Italian red wines for pairing with red sauces, but Italians will enjoy wines like Il Re with roasted meat or game. This blend is found occasionally in Italy, but does very well with the really ripe grapes we grow here in Santa Barbara County.
Enjoy.
