There is nothing like enjoying a glass of wine in the open-air during summertime. While rooftop bars and backyard patios are often a great spot to share a bottle amongst friends, enjoying local wine and cuisine at a winery in California is the ultimate experience. With hundreds of wineries to explore, it can seem overwhelming to plan your next California wine tasting excursion. That’s why this July, for “Take it Outside” month here at VinePair, we’re devoting some major content to California’s favorite wineries, and highlighting the best sites in the Northern and Central California wine regions.

Armed with our guides, you can explore the most exciting tastings, fine dining and outdoor experiences wine country has to offer. Then, find great spots to go golfing, hot air ballooning, glamping, and hiking through our interactive maps and guides. Additionally, read on to learn how to enjoy your own backyard wine tastings with the food pairings that showcase spectacular seasonal produce and complement these Californian vineyard’s favorite wines.
