Summer Nights Dream
A sure fire way to spruce up your summer nights is to spend them wining and dining in wine country. The Wine Road has 186 wineries and 56 lodgings all with their own amazing wine events to choose from.
In this wine video, Wine Oh TV’s Monique Soltani makes a Grape Escape along the Wine Road less traveled and shows us why spending an evening in Northern Sonoma County is a midsummer night’s dream!
