Vivac Winery is located on a gorgeous expanse of land in Dixon, NM, but they have a tasting room in Santa Fe just 5 minutes away from El Farolito! You can either take the easy drive to the vineyard or opt for convenience by staying in the city. Either way, you’ll get to indulge in tastings from the entire list of wines that they offer.

You are sure to find something you’ll want to take a bottle or two home of.
3. Gruet Winery Santa Fe Tasting Room
