During one of my trips up the 101 during a torrential rain storm I wandered in from the storm to an amazing and comforting wine tasting room at Laetitia Vineyard & Winery. They had a beautiful fire burning in their fireplace and people were tasting wine and chatting.

Their shelves were filled with delicious looking olives, olive oils, and other goodies people enjoy with a good bottle of wine. They also had books, bottle openers, glasses and regional publications on wine. The women working in the tasting room were very helpful and after tasting a few of their wines I decided I loved their Estate Pinot Noir more than any Pinot I’d ever tasted. The Chardonnay was quite good, but the Brut Rose was just perfect.

So, if you find yourself on highway 101 in Arroyo Grande, California, take a turn into Laetitia for a pleasant visit in their wine tasting room and have a taste of their really fine wines, especially the Pinot and Brut Rose; you will be happy you did. Their web address is www.laetitiawine.com.
