Top Local Wineries
By Stett Holbrook
AT LAST month's rematch of the 1976 Paris Tasting, California wines bested French wines—again. This time, it was a 1971 Ridge Vineyards cabernet sauvignon that came out on top. In addition to the staying power of California cabernets, the event was a reminder that not all of the Golden State's best wineries are in the Napa Valley. In addition to Ridge, here is a list of top local wineries.
