Gifts for All Occasions at ‘Season of the Vineyard’
Located in the heart of Sonoma County’s wine country, on the picturesque plaza in Healdsburg, Rhonda Carano shares the warmth and sophisticated ambience of wine country living with her shop offering a wide selection of home furnishings and gifts.
The building, circa 1883, once housed a tin shop and to this day reflects the charm of the era, with its hardwood and stained cement floors, a magnificent ornate tin ceiling and faux painted walls. Once inside, you’ll discover a selection of products for entertaining, for comforting, for gift giving and for everyday living.
If you’re in the area, stop by and shop. Rhonda’s distinctive flair for entertaining, decorating and gardening can be found throughout the store and is sure to please the discerning shopper, (www.seasonsofthevineyard.com).
Rhonda Carano and her husband Don purchased a turn-of-the-century farmhouse amidst 90 acres of choice vineyards in the Alexander Valley in the late seventies as a refuge from their busy and sometimes hectic lives in Reno, Nevada. They were quickly mesmerized by the production of fine wines and set out in the wine business and immersed themselves in the wine country life-style.
Today, they share their love for wine country living and gracious hospitality with their fans and friends at Vintners Inn, a forty-four room European-styled Inn set amidst their Russian River Valley Vineyards. The Inn's restaurant John Ash & Co. serves the freshest and finest of local flavors with an award-winning wine list, and the stamp of their wine country lifestyle is found here at Seasons of the Vineyard, Rhonda’s wine country boutique/emporium on the Healdsburg Plaza, (www.vintnersinn.com).
But it was their prized vineyards and world-class wines that put Don and Rhonda on the wine country map.
Having amassed an outstanding portfolio of Sonoma County vineyard properties, the production of premium wines with winemaker, George Bursick was a natural. With the state of the art winery and the constant pursuit for perfection, Ferrari-Carano has garnered a reputation for producing some of the finest wines in California found on the best wine lists throughout the United States.
The beautiful story doesn’t end there.
