A visit to Newport Beach’s best kept
secret
Is a visit you will not ever regret
Newport Beach Vineyards and Winery
at the head of the Back Bay
3 acres of grapes basking in the sun
as jets overhead to and from destinations away
The noise of departing jets from John
Wayne does not upset the grapes in the aging cave
And the wine when released to be
sold and consumed produces great raves
Owned by a man who used to orchids
raise and collect classic cars
Now producing wines that merit 5
stars
A band of Stanford Alums touring and
entertained by stories of the history of Orange County wine
Before Orange County became famous
for its orange groves the center of wine growing was in Anaheim
Alas not to continue as the
vineyards were decimated in the 1880’s by a blight
Orange groves remained and expanded
while vineyards faded in sight
A fitting event for alumni of a
school called The Farm
Bolstered by fact the Sun chased
away a May storm alarm
Five tons of premier grapes turned
into wine
The perfect company when at home you
dine
No public tasting only private
events
An oasis where your group by
reservation would want to be sent
