I was fortunate that I had time to visit the Olaf Cellars vineyard during my brief visit to see family before heading back up to Washington state. I bought 2 of their wines; one for my Uncle, and one for my father.
The vineyard itself is a scenic respite, even while enduring the unyielding midday sun. The location is conveniently located away from the ambience of nearby roads, with easy access, and clear signage to the location of the Olaf Cellars property.
The small store on the premises accepts cash and card, offers a variety of quality wines dated between several years, and even sells locally made handcrafted jewelry by the Olaf family.
I've tried my fair share of wine across Europe, and parts of the US, and I believe it's a fair statement to say this location does not sacrifice quality. It is easily one of the finest wines I've had from California, and the price per bottle was more than worth what I paid.
This is the vineyard worth visiting if you are in Lake County. Consider calling ahead if you decide to go.
The short version:
A+ grade wine, good cost, and beautiful location....
