It's the Santa Cruz Mountain Winery Passport Day!
I'm so excited that my in-laws are coming in to town on Passport Day. It wasn't planned but now they're coming and we're going to head out to some of our favorite Santa Cruz Mountain wineries.
First stop, Testarossa. One of our new friends works there so we'll probably start out with brunch at Stack's in Campbell and then head over. They're the Bay Area's oldest continuously operating winery and are located in downtown Los Gatos at the historic 19th century Novitiate winery.
After that we'll head over highway 17 to try something new at the Burrell School Winery. After all, that's what the Passport Day is all about - trying out new wineries.
We'll finish up at our favorite winery, Bargetto in Soquel. It's a great location right on the San Lorenzo River. The staff has always been great and very casual. Hopefully they'll have a new vintage for the orange muscat!
