Truett Hurst Winery: Concierge Fam Tour Stop #1

Truett Hurst Winery is Stop #1 on our 1.19.12 Wine Road Concierge Fam Tour.

On a rainy Thursday along Wine Road, our spirits are sunny, arriving at Truett Hurst Winery, tucked away out Dry Creek Road along Dry Creek, surrounded by vineyards, gardens, and green-gardening sheep and goats.  This is stop #1 on our Wine Road/Blue Heron Custom Tours & Travel Concierge Fam Tour, with 5 Concierges on board from SF.

Baby Dolls et al, munching down the rows of grass, never touching the vines….

Sheep immortalized in the TR.

Two goats, no waiting….black goat on right: Luci-fer….

Luci-Fer in close up: do not mess with her!

At Truett Hurst, sustainable, green, ecological practices are de rigeur, including the marshaling of the natural eating/trimming grass talents of goats and sheep.  The organic gardens surrounding the TR lead down to Dry Creek where the salmon will eventually run on by, heading to spawn or back up even further to the Warm Springs Fish Hatchery.  What a gorgeous spot- iconic red Adirondack chairs in picnic groupings (give a call to reserve yours!) spill along the banks of the no longer seasonally dry Dry Creek (perhaps a name change would have been in order?) We tour the gardens and creek and then back to the TR for tasting; my concierges have a blast with the warm, knowledgeable Bob and Cindi.

Here’s looking at you, kids.
