Trail Two · The Quiet Five Miles
Europa Village
A hillside “village” of European-styled wineries — Spanish Bolero, French C’est La Vie, Italian Vienza — with casitas to sleep in between tastings.
The concept sounds like a theme park and mostly avoids becoming one, because each of the three houses is a working tasting room with its own list rather than a themed corner of a single bar. Budget more time than you think: people arrive planning one stop and leave having done three.

| On site | casitas, so the day does not have to end. |
| Suits | a full day, or a stay, rather than a single stop. |
Before you drive
This page is an independent guide, not the winery. Hours, tasting fees and
reservation rules change season to season — and several rooms are
reservation-only on weekends. Check Europa Village’s own site or call before
building the day around it.
