"A pink and green cow visible from the Silverado Trail is the only clue to the immersive wine, art, and nature experience that awaits at the Terraces, an estate winery tucked into the Rutherford hills. Co-owner Sharon Crull says an ATV is the best way to explore the 120-acre property, which includes cider orchards, art installations, and a historic stone building. After a stop for a balsamic vinegar tasting that includes seeing the tiny wood casks where it’s aged, head back to the winery for husband Timm Crull’s estate hard apple cider made like champagne, plus wines that include a lush chenin blanc sourced from the prestigious Clarksburg region, a tropical tasting falanghina, and a violet-scented cabernet franc." - Maria C.
