When the weather is nice, this is a great place to stop. Don’t let the drive down a dusty road deter you, Guerra Family Cellars has an adorably rustic tasting room on a beautiful piece of property, and most importantly, the wine is delicious. We tasted two Viogniers and four red wines: two Petite Sirahs, a Malbec, and a Blend called Three Sisters. We left with a case of Petite Sirah and a couple of bottles of Malbec. In addition to wine, you can taste the family’s olive oil and flavored walnuts. It’s a great place to bring a picnic lunch too. Oh, and check out their summer concert series. They have an amphitheater and bring in some fun bands.

What a wonderful accident… A recent tryst into the countryside of Hollister has procured this amazing discovery. This place really needs more Unilocal-ing as we only discovered it by chance — mentioned by a random sommelier from another winery we visited. The road that leads to the tasting room is a bit sketchy, full of bumps and turns and unpaved goodness for an off-roading enthusiast. Known more for the olives, Guerra has started to make their own vintage and as such produced one of the best value Petite Sirah I’ve ever tasted. The 2008 vintage has won them a silver award and rightly so.
