Just time to start doing the things you really want to do for the rest of your life. If not now…when? So what does the future look like? Let's summon up a little active imagination… See if we can set the table and sample a taste. Maybe you'd enjoy a small latitude adjustment a little farther south of the Silicon Valley rat race? Not off the grid or a million miles away. Just somewhere close in that feels far away. Great WIFI reception without the onslaught of the 24 hour news cycle and the ceaseless chatter of social media. Maybe you're looking for a different kind of connectivity? Like connection to community. A strong sense of place. Small town ambiance. A bit of history. Visible, tangible, drinkable and rewarding proof of the fruits of your own labor on a daily basis. Maybe a slower, more mindful pace is more appealing? One geared to the experience of real life rather than the mindless accumulation of more and more stuff. A life that gets you out of your head and into your heart. Out of the house and into nature. Out of the dream and into the doing. Why don't you try walking around in the comfortable shoes of a small estate vineyard owner for an afternoon? Explore the idea of cultivating a vineyard as a powerful metaphor for re-visioning your own life. Great vineyards aren't any different than people. They thrive and flourish in the right environments. One's that are loved and carefully nurtured. Great grapes are the culmination of hard work, enterprising talent and heartfelt stewardship of the land. Great wines are the finished product of long, thoughtful processes that can only grow and unfold over time. In a vineyard, quality of life isn't an abstract thought. It's more of a hands-on experience. Yes, it's pleasurable to be able to raise a glass and toast the fruits of your labor. But it's even more of an enjoyable, full-body experience when you've been intimately involved from the ground up. This is all something to consider when you come for a visit and stroll along the old-world, terraced hillsides of this remarkable property, nestled along the Corralitos Wine Trail. Between the neatly planted rows of heritage vines burgeoning with grapes. As fingers of coastal fog tiptoe slowly up Browns Valley Road. Alive in the quiet air and soft morning light. While the soothing sounds of silence reverberate across the lush pastoral valley setting. Even as time itself seems to meander right along with you at the same gentle pace. Woodruff Family/Terra Serena Vineyard isn't just about living in a lovingly remodeled, single level home in a close-in Corralitos locale. Or just about the awe-inspiring views and natural beauty that surround these 23 acres of land. And it's not just about having the status of owning your own award-winning vineyard – one that has consistently produced sought- after wines in the Santa Cruz Mountain appellation for more than 30 years. It's really about the opportunity to choose to live life in a certain way. And to share that legacy with your family, closest friends and the world at large. www.TerraSerenaVineyard.com
