Looking to do something a little different in the San Fernando Valley? Perhaps after a long discouraging day of house hunting? How about wine tasting at D'Argenzio Wines in Burbank? Although I've driven by this place on Burbank Boulevard a million times, I had never stopped in until the other day. The room was really nice. The D'Argenzio family staff was great. The other tasters were very friendly. A flight of wines is $10, which is remitted if you buy a bottle. I learned that D'Argenzio is a major grape grower and vintner in the Sonoma area, and is very well known for their red wines.
But how is the wine? I say really, really good. I particularly liked the Russian River Pinot Noir and the Dry Creek Zinfandel. Each is about $34 a bottle, so this isn't the stuff you're likely going to drink as you, say, do your laundry. But perhaps it's worth drinking during another evening spent looking online for homes?
Had a long day house hunting? How about finishing with a wine tasting right in the SFV?
