Things to Do: Vista D'Oro Farms in Langley


It is great to get away from the city and head towards the country.  Even better when the country is only one hour away and has a winery and picnic lunch menu.  Vista D'Oro Farms is a recommended stop on the Circle Farm tours.  We didn't do the circle farm tour, but knew what we wanted and went straight to Vista D'Oro Farms.  We had a nice wine tasting and then ordered a picnic lunch which included a salami meat plate, cheese plate, preserves, curry hummus served with crackers because they ran out of fresh baguette.  They put it all in a lovely carry basket for you to bring out to the shaded tables outside on the front lawn.  Relaxing in the sunshine overlooking the vineyard and chatting with friends over a glass of wine.  It's a great way to try their cheeses, preserves, and wine before you buy.  I knew exactly what I wanted after the picnic lunch.  I brought home brie cheese and their famous walnut fortified wine.  After one sip of this unique, rich flavored fortified walnut wine, I was hooked.

Vista D'Oro Farms is located at 346 208th Street Langley, BC.
