Picchetti Ranch lies up in the Santa Cruz Mountains in California. It is also the home of Picchetti Winery which is one of the oldest wineries in California.
You can read more about the winery, our visit and wine-tasting at Picchetti Winery on the previous post –> Swirl, Smell, Sip the wine at Picchetti.
This post features some pictures from Picchetti Winery, situated on the Santa Cruz Mountains. Without further ado, let me give you a quick tour of the picturesque settings of this Winery up in the mountains —
Picchetti’s Peacock: They have a pet peacock here at Picchetti Ranch and there’s even a wine in the winery here that is dedicated to the beautiful bird. (You can read about it in the other post.)
If this picture below doesn’t say how historical this winery/ ranch is, I don’t know what does. Read about the history of this winery also in the post about our visit there.
Barrels, barrels and more barrels.

Wine Tasting? You got exotic tastes dear!
Nice place, all quiet, calm and a superb country-side getaway and they got a peacock.
Hmm…I love fermented grape juice 🙂
Yeah, that really was a calm and peaceful place. The peacock is something very special to this winery. They even have a house special(wine) named after the peacock. It was an Englishman who was in charge of the tastings and I remember he pointed to the picture of a peacock feather on the bottle and said "Your national bird, huh?"
