Carmel Valley
Bars, breweries, and nightlife in Carmel Valley, California
Carmel Valley, just inland from Carmel-by-the-Sea, is almost entirely a wine-tasting destination - BarFinder lists 47 venues here, and 42 of them are wineries, including Heller Estate Organic Vineyards and Holman Ranch Tasting Patio. It's a quiet wine-country stretch built for an afternoon or evening of tasting-room hopping rather than a classic night-out bar scene.
