All Wine Wednesday: Storefront Tasting Rooms




When doing a wine excursion, sometimes you can't always get to to the orchard or the estate.  Enter the storefront tasting room.  On this edition of All Wine Wednesday, The California Travel Wine Insider Tom Silberkleit told Tonia's Kitchen says these stores, run by the vineyards, are popping up by the dozens in many of California wine country's most prolific cities  and towns. While they are becoming popular, there's also a backlash that's beginning to take hold, as some feel it denies wine travelers of the estate experience.  As for the wines themselves, Tom says like anything, there's both good and not-so-good.
