Coming back from Valle de Guadalupe this past week was an incredible experience that went beyond my senses. I visit about four artisan wineries which included Tres Valles, Tres Mujeres, Santo Thomas and Adobe Guadalupe. Each was superb with a beautiful backdrop setting of vineyards and grapes. The best wines in Latin America all around with dedicated wine makers flourishing in their fruits. I really enjoy a seafood lunch at Hacienda Guadalupe! I love Baja Wine and encourage everyone to discover this unexplored region of Mexico!

Milagro Farm Vineyards
Milagro Farm Vineyards and Winery is a boutique winery located at 2400 feet elevation in the rolling mountains of Ramona, California. All of our wines are produced entirely from fruit grown on our property. Our vineyards are planted and managed to produce low yields and are watered completely from spring water wells on the property. These farming practices, the unique nature of our high altitude micro-climate, and the rocky granitic soils in our mountain vineyards allow us to produce exquisite fruit. Our wines are representative of the exciting potential of this historic and emerging wine growing region.
