Wannabe Winos on the Road!

Well, we are headed off to our annual trip to California. I had hoped we were going to be able to visit another part of CA wine country this time, but we’ve decided on one more trip to the Dry Creek/Russian River/Alexander/Anderson Valley area, due to time constraints and a few other factors. Plus, we do really love the area, and it brings back nice memories of our honeymoon.

We will be in the area this Saturday evening through Wednesday morning, so really 3 full days. I’m trying not to plan too much this time, and I’m avoiding making appointments on this trip. Any you would absolutely say are MUST SEEs that don’t require appointments? And if you have any restaurant recommendations in the area, I’d love to hear them! I’m fairly set on stopping in again at Roederer, so we will be up in the Anderson Valley, and I would like to try to run by Bella and David Coffaro again to taste their newer line ups and restock my cellar with some of their offerings. With that said, here’s a list of the places we’ve previously visited:
