I can’t believe that living in the Bay Area for this long and I \"P1030332\"<\/a>
\nhaven’t been here to Regale Winery and Vineyards at all. Even the winery is in Los Gatos, but it’s actually deep inside the Santa Cruz Mountains, just a short drive of 10 minutes from downtown Los Gatos and 20 minutes from downtown San Jose, the heart of Silicon Valley.<\/p>\n

The Tasting Room Open to the Public Saturday and Sunday from Noon-5 PM by appointment only, but Regale Winery and Vineyards are strictly for \u00a0members only and during the week, they often rent out for corporate events and weddings.<\/p>\n

Regale Winery and Vineyards is so beautiful with gorgeous Italian \"IMG_2832\"<\/a>inspired landscape, garden, water fountain, and a breathtaking view of the Santa Cruz Mountains and the vineyards. It’s peaceful, tranquil, and romantic. I can see why it’s such a great place for a wedding. \u00a0A\u00a0spiral herb garden, outdoor fireplaces, a bocce ball court, and a traditional wood-fired oven. Three varieties of olive trees line the property from which they\u00a0hand-pick and press the olives to produce their\u00a0Estate Olive Oil. Wait till Summer, when they harvest their tomatoes, it’s so much fun to be here.<\/p>\n

We were lucky enough to get to meet the winemaker Larry Schaadt and his brother, the men behind this operation. He makes wines with a passion, besides their vineyards, the winemaker sources the grapes from all over Sonoma to Napa Valley to make his wines and bottling it here at the winery.<\/p>\n

The winemaker is such a charmer, with a warm personality, and \"IMG_2827\"<\/a>beautiful blue eyes. (OK, so that got nothing to do with wines, but you know what I mean.) He and his brother were so gracious chatting up with us and sharing with us their story behind the winery.<\/p>\n

Instead of tasting a selection of 5 wines limited productions, we got to try a few more rare wines, never before seen; from Pinot Noir from different appellation to Cabernet Sauvignon, to sparkling wine. Everything was delicious.<\/p>\n

On our third visit, we got to try the new release 2013 Regale \"regale-cab\"<\/a>Russian River Valley Pinot Noir which was quite nice and the Super Tuscan. \u00a0You can do tasting flights here or you can order a bottle of wine on the menu to share with your group.\u00a0They focus on Pinot Noir and Cabernet, but they\u00a0also feature limited-production Italian varietals such as Sangiovese and Barbera as well as their\u00a0popular Chardonnay. \u00a0It’s a perfect way to spend a beautiful weekend afternoon with your friends and loved ones.<\/p>\n

My friends and I enjoyed our visit and the hospitality of the staff there from beginning to finish.<\/p>\n
