The location couldn’t be more perfect for a day spent wine tasting in Northern Sonoma. Video diary of this visit coming next week!
Right in the heart of Dry Creek Valley and less than 5 minutes from the famous Healdsburg square full of restaurants, shopping and world class wines. They even have a 3 star michelin restaurant right down the way. Nice.
Here at Zo, guests can stay among the vines at the inn, and taste the distinctive hand-crafted, small-lot wines. The Triple Ten Vineyard surrounds the tasting room and inn and was named for its heavenly perfection of 10 acres.
Heavenly because of its hidden meaning and beauty. Ten in Japanese is Heaven, Ten is a perfect score, and the vineyard is just over 10 acres in size. As part of the farmstay experience, visitors taste the wines and get an introduction to the estate. Of course they can also purchase wine on premise to be enjoyed here or at home. Or both!
The prices of this experience beat out many of the hotels in this region plus, you get to stay in the historic renovated property, wine taste through their collection and have access to the lovely home during your stay. Zo offers a number of unique room choices to experience Sonoma Country living at it’s finest.
Views from the vineyards out your bedroom window of course. Relax on the porch in the afternoon before heading off to dinner.
Visitors are free to use the living areas, outdoor spaces, and kitchen and of course make sure to schedule their private wine tasting on site when staying. They provide guests a unique Sonoma County wine experience that entertains and educates, while tasting vineyard driven wines.
On the estate, they focus on Dry Creek Valley favorites that grow best in the terroir, Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Carignane, Grenache, Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, and a few other rhone and spanish varieties too. These are small batch and focused wines where the Zo team controls the farming practices to really get what they desire in the final glass.
If this is your first visit to Sonoma County, you may not be sure where to go and taste with so many options. The personalized service from the Zo Wines team can come in handy here as well. Staff is on site during the day to help. Spend the day touring some of Sonoma County’s hidden gems!
Let them organize your day, take care of all the logistics and do the driving so you can relax and enjoy in one of their stylish Mercedes Benz luxury vans.
The Zo team also offers many other ‘experiences’ in the region during your stay. They can arrange for an all day tour with lunch, a helicopter ride over wine country, bike rentals for a ride through the area or even airport service if you need. They can take the hassle out of your visit, tours and stay here in wine country as they can plan it all for you and all you have to do is show up and enjoy.
For the prices, it is the total wine country package. Experience a lifestyle. Yes, please.
