With its beautiful scenery, fine hospitality and delicious wine and food, Sonoma County is a wonderful travel destination.  While many wineries have tours of vineyards, now Gallo of Sonoma�, one of the world�s most awarded wineries, is offering something a little different.  Here�s Matt Gallo, third generation winegrower:

�Well, our �Seasons in the Vineyard� program is unique because it provides a hands-on, interactive experience.  Our guests can feel the soil, prune the vines, pick and taste the grapes and hear the sounds of the vineyards.  Also, the intimate tours are geared to the season to showcase the changes in our vineyards.  This time of year, the berry clusters are on the vines, which represent future grapes, which will be harvested this fall.  Our guests will have a sneak peek at these berries and learn what the season means to us.  My family is proud to invite visitors to experience the vineyards and learn about our winegrowing and winemaking philosophy and practices.�

Tours are by appointment only, and to make a reservation, please e-mail tours@gallosonoma-dot-com or call 707-433-2458.
