Tres Sabores

Tres Sabores is a small Rutherford winery that makes excellent Organic Certified wines… and is one of the most beautiful places in the world to spend the night. They have one room they rent out and we were lucky enough to be given the gift of an overnight there.

This is the quiet time of the year at the vineyards: the grapes have been picked and processed, the new growth hasn’t started yet and the pruning is a bit of a ways away.

Staying overnight gives you something that, unless you live at a winery or vineyard, very few people see: Sunrise with the grapes. 

The sheep are turned out just before sunrise to graze amongst the vines

Did I mention they rent one room? They do that mainly because… there is only ONE room: an extremely nice “one room apartment” located on one end of the wine building that doubles as the Tasting Reception during the day. Very private, very nice: a perfect place to decompress and forget, for a little while, the craziness of our world.
