PRIE Winery WINE TASTING
The same handcrafted appeal of PRIE’s vino medley is present in the facilities where the current tasting room—an extension of the winery’s outdoor rooms—features a bar made from the barn’s repurposed wood. Here, staff pours a selection of wines—Zinfandel, Vermentino, Pinot Noir, Merlot, and two blends—from 11 AM-5 PM, Friday through Sunday. 15628 Alpine Rd., Lodi (925) 784-6197, PrieWinery.com
