La Serenissima Winery Tasting

We were invited to a private tasting event at a local San Diego County winery, La Serenissima.  La Serenissima is located in the far northern reaches of San Diego County near Warner Springs and Sunshine Summit at over 3200 ft elevation in shadows of Palomar Mountain.  The wines are a mix of Italian and Spanish varietals and the more commonly grown Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Merlot.  The grapes are estate grown and the wine is estate cellared.  It's a very beautiful setting for the winery and they make the most of the location and the terroir.
