Vineyards overlooking Horse Mountain near Grand Junction, Colo.
Grand Mesa, a 10,000-foot-high, flat-topped mountain, towers over at least 19 high-elevation vineyards and lush cherry, peach, and apple orchards. As the weather warms, the wineries open up their oak barrels for the Barrel into Spring event, where the public can sample wine that’s never known the inside of a bottle.
