Pacific Star Winery, Fort Bragg

Loved visiting here! Saw a sign that said “Tasting” and couldn’t resist. It was a beautiful place and had 5 delightful wines on the tasting when I stopped. It was a random, impromptu detour on my traveling along HWY 1 and I couldn’t be more pleased with it. The gift shop is adorable (and affordable) and the staff was very kind and knowledgeable of the wines, making sure to explain them when pouring the tastings. The seating area was very spacious and has a gorgeous view overlooking the Pacific Ocean. I visited for over an hour and was so thrilled, in fact, I purchased 2 bottles of their Charbono and thoroughly enjoyed every glass.

After leaving Napa, we wanted to try a winery along the coast. Pacific Star was great not for their wines but more for their property and views. It's a great laid-back place to have several glasses of wine and move around to different sitting areas for the views. Had so much fun here. Would definitely recommend it for a fun experience.
