Lake County Getaway Ideas

Lake County has deep roots in viticulture and wine making. The first vineyards were planted in the 1870’s and internationally recognized wines were being produced by 1900. Like many regions, Prohibition stopped wine production and it did not reemerge in this agriculturally oriented county until the 1960’s. Many of the area’s growers are generational farmers whose families grew such crops as pears and walnuts before planting vineyards.

Today, Lake County has over 8,400 acres producing fruit for wine.
