Wander around the vineyards of Alma Rosa Winery and it feels as though the hills speak, rising and falling across the Sta. Rita Hills property.

On Saturday, May 17, the vineyard slopes echoed with the footfalls of 275 visitors, and a sense of purpose, as they raised funds during the sixth annual Peace of Mind: 10,000 Steps in the Right Direction walk. The charming property has a rugged edge that spans 628 acres, making a trek through it more challenging than a stroll in the park.
