Wine Spectator is by far my favorite wine magazine. The glossy pages, the clean layout, beautiful pictures, interesting articles and skilled writing. It’s worth a subscription if you are into wine. This month their feature article spans the middle of the magazine with stories and articles on wine and cheese pairing. This is something that is written about over and over again, but I always find something new with each article I read.
Right now their website has a great feature story in the wine country travel section on the Central Coast. The article is titled ‘Cutting Edge wineries, enticing restaurants, and wide open spaces’ by Daniel Sogg. Highlighted viticultural areas are Santa Barbara, Arroyo Grande and the Edna Valley, Paso Robles, and Monterey’s Santa Lucia Highlands (which should not be confused with Napa or Sonoma). Sogg discusses the Santa Barbara region as having “the richest array of dining and lodging.” Lafond Winery is mentioned as one of a few of the tasting rooms in the Santa Rita Hills Appellation.
