"...Holly's Hill Vineyards

The family-run winery enjoys enviable grape-growing conditions and panoramic views of the Cosumnes River canyon.  But the star attraction in the ligh-filled tasting room are the wines, especially the estate-grown Rhone varietals.  The winery offers tours (by appointment) of its winemaking facility, and during harvest time visitors can observe the entire process. Or they cann simply repair to the picnic tables beneath the vineyard's towering pines and behold stirring hilltop vistas.
