The 2-mile washboard road leading to the Six Sigma Ranch winery is a bit of a bone-rattler, but don’t let that discourage you. On the other side, pastoral paradise awaits: a 4,300-acre working ranch dotted with ancient oaks and a stagecoach stop turned tasting room, plus vibrant Sauvignon Blancs and dusty-berried Tempranillo to take the edge off. To fully embrace it, hop in the winery’s Pinzgauer, an Austrian military ATV, for an hourlong tour of the ranch and its high-altitude vineyards. Later, claim a spot on the porch for wine and cheese, and watch Cabernet vines leaf out.
