Visit "Sideways" Wine Country without the Crowds
The movie "Sideways" brought mixed blessings not only to the folks and wineries in the Santa Ynez Valley, where the movie was set, but also to the people who visited. Where there once was a peaceful getaway location to a lesser known California wine country, now there's lots of traffic and lots more people.
Los Angeles Times food writer Ann Herold writes about her experiences in Santa Ynez to find the road less traveled, and some smaller wineries that maybe are better than the Sanford's and Fess Parker's. All in all, she uncovers a more peaceful way to enjoy your weekend trip and Pinot Noirs in "Sideways" wine country.
