		<description><![CDATA[The Santa Cruz Mountains Passport is one of the best.  Buy a Passport and it doesn&#8217;t expire.  You can visit each winery once, and there are plenty of visit.  A mostly unexplored section of this wine region is on the southern end north of Watsonville.  This past January we decided to see what is there.

		<description><![CDATA[We visited this winery last weekend in Santa Cruz, CA. It is a tiny working winery in an industrial park building. Nothing romantic but Bill Miiler, the vintner, is enthusiastic and the barrels are there for an impromptu barrel tasting. This evening we are drinking his 07 Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot. The nose is outstanding [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I taste a lot of wine all over California but rarely blog about wine.  All the wine is very good with only subtle differences.  However, sometimes I bump into a winery that crafts their wines differently.  I&#8217;m not giving a value judgment or rating but instead a heads-up that you may want to try these [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Compared to the fun times we have at other regions&#8217; passport events this Santa Cruz Mountains event sucked.  We&#8217;ve experienced better there.  We visited Ridge, Pichetti, Naumann, Savannah-Chanelle, Loma Prieta and Silver Mountain.  Two that were on the passport weren&#8217;t open which was an inconvenience.  None had interesting food.  I&#8217;m disappointed with my native wine [...]]]></description>
