Why visit Blair Estate for wine tasting?
The Arroyo Seco district in Monterey County is a special place. It is one of the best places to grow Pinot Noir grapes, and it is the home of 5 generations of Blair family members.
The first Blairs bought this piece of paradise in the 1920’s, and the family found it fertile to their touch. The grandson, Jeffrey, took this land and love of the terrior in new directions by planting 5 acres of Pinot Noir, 2 acres of Chardonnay and 1 block of Muscat. He kept the traditional house where his grandmother, Delfina, would cook for her family and the ranch hands in pristine condition to channel her dedication to the land into his new enterprise, and it seems to have worked. He now produces artisanal, limited release wines his grandmother could take pride in.
You can taste these unique wines in a tasting room, too. It is a small room they share with Shale Canyon Vineyard, but it is on the famous Carmel Wine Walk. This will take you to the classy Paseo San Carlos Courtyard, in the middle of the shopping and restaurant district of Carmel by the Sea. This set up allows you to sample 3 flights of wine and soak up the ambiance of Carmel. We don’t know about you, but we consider that a great afternoon.
If you have a lover of Pinot Noir, this is a must visit winery. They are focused on bringing the terroir of Arroyo Seco ava into your glass! Are you more of a white wine lover? Blair Estate has some critically acclaimed Chardonnay for you to try along with a Pinot Gris offering.
