A Weekend in Wine Country: Stay Overnight at Sonoma Wineries with Lodging
The beauty and allure of Sonoma County Wine Country continue long after the sun has set and the tasting room doors have closed. That’s why so many travelers seek out vineyard homes and wineries with lodging. There is something magical about sleeping in serenity, surrounded by grapevines, olive trees, mature oaks and overflowing gardens, and with only the sounds of nature echoing in the background. Several Sonoma wineries make overnight stays available to visitors, and though some offer the perk only to their wine club members–reason enough to sign up–others open their front doors to all those interested.
