Harmony Cellars
Hidden in SLOs smallest town, with a population of just 18, is a must see. Since 1989 they've grown their modest 2,000 case production to almost 7,500 a year. They have a beautiful outdoor area and indoor spaces for special and not so special occasions. Since they are not tied to an estate, they can choose the best of what the region has to offer. The town also has a glass blower, handmade pottery and even a creamery.
