1. Welcome to Vintners Inn!
Autumn is here and we’re so excited to incorporate this
year’s harvest in our menu. We’ve been collecting pump-
kins, gourds, and squash from Rhonda’s Garden. Luckily,
Chef Tom Schmidt knows exactly what to do with the boun-
ty of ingredients of the Wine Country which makes for truly
special offerings at John Ash & Co.
Lately we’ve been seeing some jackrabbits hopping along our
grounds, and we’re pretty sure they’ve become friends with our goats (and goose) on prop-
erty. If you can’t see the rabbits from your room, feel free to grab a trail map from the Front
Desk and enjoy a walk through our vineyards.
If you’d rather not mosey through our vineyards, our bocce ball court is open to our guests
and the equipment (and instructions) are available at the Front Desk.
Celebrate Everything!

ment for growing grapes. The
valley does not only grow spec-
tacular grapes, but they are com-
mitted to sustainability as well
with the Green Trail that runs
through the valley. The Dry
Creek Valley has a bounty of
wines for you to discover!
The Dry Creek Valley is just twenty
minutes north of us and has been home to
many varietals including Zinfandel, Sauvi-
gnon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot,
Syrah, Chenin Blanc, and Chardonnay.
The valley took roots in praiseworthy
winemaking back in the 1850s. Reviews
dating back to the 1880s cite Dry Creek
Valley as a premier purveyor of wines.
