CARMEL, CA – Vendange Carmel Inn and Suites has partnered with 14 local Monterey County wineries to create a unique guest experience celebrating the bounty of Monterey County’s vineyards. Each winery sponsors one room or suite, providing its own creative touches. From the McIntyre Vineyards room with its impressive 100-year-old section of grapevine to J. Lohr’s plush bathrobes, every winery’s room offers a signature luxury experience. For 2014, Vendange has announced the release of its first new wine themed for 2014 with Blair Estate Winery.
“Blair Estate winery is proud to partner with Vendange,” said Winemaker Jeffrey Blair “Both Carmel establishments are independent, artisan, and family run with an emphasis on the guest experience. Blair added that “we’ve tried to bring a bit of our family history and love of the land to the décor and furnishings of the “Blair Estate Room” at the hotel. We worked with Grant Peterson Design and noted local artist and decorator Bella Lofaso to create an elegant, interesting space that is both welcoming and comfortable. We wanted to extend the feel and hospitality of our tasting room into this fun, new space.”
“I was inspired by Jeffery’s proud reflection of his family heritage and the influence it has on his devotion to his grandparents’ legacy through Blair Estate Winery,” said local artist and decorator Bella Lofaso. “The beautiful Blair Estate Winery label, with the warm reddish browns and gold B established the color palette for the bedding textiles. The room is simple and understated, yet evokes a sense of warmth and comfort by incorporating family photos, Blair Winery photos, custom crafted re-purposed wine furniture and whimsical signs.
This Summer Vendange will be unveiling a room by Holman Ranch Wines. Details available soon.

J. Lohr:
Flavorful wines, quite literally “wines full of flavor” are the mission at J. Lohr. J. Lohr’s unwavering focus on flavors sounds so simple, yet it’s surprisingly complex. Achieving the best flavor demands total control, every step of the way, and is the result of planting each site to its ideal grape variety and applying artisanal winemaking techniques, including extended maceration, barrel and malolactic fermentation, among others. When you stay in the J. Lohr room you soak up the flavor of the vineyard. From grapevine wreaths and a barrel on the balcony that offers the perfect table top to enjoy some wine and cheese to art from the vineyard and a custom J. Lohr wine display, you will as if you have been transported to the vineyard.
