Monterey is a huge county, and while the areas by the coast are often quite cool, the more you head inland, the more the temperatures heat up. That makes for some different wine choices, including Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah. You might stay at Bernardus Lodge and sample the culinary acumen of Cal Stamenov, then head out on the wine trail. The choices are varied in Monterey County, but I’m guessing you’ll not be disappointed no matter which route you choose.
