Grab a glass of vino and start paging and dreaming. This is California wine country after all, and the 25 wineries featured here — all built within the last decade — make the most of their Golden State setting. Designed by top architects, including Juancarlos Fernandez and Howard Backen, these spaces take their cue from the vinters’ twin passions for the land and the fruit of the vine, and for enjoying both to the fullest.
