Jaunt over to little-known, utterly picturesque Alpen Cellars. Specializing in riesling, gewürtztraminer , chardonnay and pinot noir, the vineyard is open for tours, tastings and picnicking on idyllic riverside grounds. To get there from Weaverville, take Hwy 3 for about 35 miles to the north end of Trinity Lake (5 miles past Trinity Center), then turn right on East Side Rd; 8 miles further, head left on East Fork Rd and continue for 2 miles.
