Style Magazine - August 2023
Wondering where you should take your friends this summer? All the places mentioned in this month’s feature, “Wine Time!” are a “grape” place to start. Turn to page 54 for tasteful tasting rooms, vineyards with a view, spots where you can sip while also savoring a meal, and more. My out-of-town guests were beyond impressed with the amazing vino (particularly the petite sirahs and bold barberas), state-of-the-art spaces, and stunning scenery. Need something else to show your forever friends? All the farm-to-fork flavors found ’round town on almost every menu. From cocktails made with just-picked peaches to pizza topped with slow-roasted sweet corn and cherry tomatoes, we were hard-pressed to find a meal made without something locally grown—and even checked out a farmers’ market (for a list of regional ones, flip to page 86). But the most exciting (and my personal favorite) expedition was exploring a handful of farm-to-bottle breweries—places that grow their ingredients (hops, honey, mandarins, and more) on-site. Check out “Good Beer Hunting” (page 84) for a roundup of where to find these hidden, home-grown gems—with recommendations on what to try.
