The River Road Wine Trail is a Salinas Valley wine-tasting route following River Road (County Route G17) along the western banks of the Salinas River. It is not to be misidentified with the Great River Road that traverses along the banks of the Mississippi River through multiple states. The road also designates the eastern boundary of the Santa Lucia Highlands AVA and accesses many of the resident wineries contributing to local enotourism business. Due to its popularity, it is notably referenced in numerous books and magazines.[2]
