Excerpt from Day TripsAs one travels up the mountain, miles upon miles of terraced vineyards cascade in perfect symmetry down the summit while being juxtaposed to the cool, silk-like fog embankment that highlights the terrain. Very few sites in the area embody such aesthetic beauty as Mountain Terraces Vineyard. Located on the Sonoma side of Mt. Veeder, this pristine masterpiece of agricultural artistry will leave any viewer with a sense of awe and appreciation.With 125 acres (80 of which are planted) as well as multiple elevations within the estate, it is no wonder that Mountain Terraces Vineyard is capable of growing a multitude of Bordeaux and Rhône varieties. There are also 800 Italian olive trees adding to the beauty of the property from which absolutely lovely estate olive oil is made.The winery on the top of the estate is called Akóma Zoúme which is Greek and means "live on." Thoughtfully crafted from these premium mountainside grapes are truly delightful, complex and balanced wines. Mountain Terraces Vineyard will offer the quintessential day trip experience. With such majestic views, one cannot help but to pack a picnic lunch and enjoy a bright, sunny afternoon with friends and family in the heart of naturalistic decadence. Vineyard tours are presented only by appointment so that the guests may have the finest experience and make a memory to last a lifetime.Mountain Terraces Winery Partners:Akoma ZoumeAghartaThree SticksDemuth Kemos
