We decided to look for a winery that was far afield of the towns and other tourists. Erick spotted Rustridge Winery & Ranch on the map. So off we went to find it.
Along the way, we saw Lake Hennessey and decided to stop there and explore a bit. The lake is a reservoir for the valley's water supply. Unlike many reservoirs around the state, it was full.
A bit more driving and we arrived at Rustridge Winery & Ranch (and B&B). It was much different from Rutherford Hill Winery which was outfitted for special events like weddings.
