Moshin overnight and tasting
$400Spend a day enjoying pinot noir in the Sonoma County wine country, and enjoy a one night stay at Moshin Vineyards in Healdsburg, California with this certificate for wine tasting and an overnight stay for two.
The Moshin Estate is comprised of four vineyards, all planted along Westside Road at the southwestern border of the Middle Reach neighborhood of the Russian River Valley AVA (American Viticultural Area). This classic neighborhood is known for producing textured wines with ripe flavors and gentle aromatics of florals, earth, and baking spices - elements you'll find in the various styles of Moshin Vineyards Pinot Noir.
Our estate vineyards are named Moshin Estate, Calliope, Rosalina, and River Myst Haven. Set either near or adjacent to the Russian River and its maritime influence, all four vineyards benefit from the Russian River Valley's ideal growing conditions for premium Pinot Noir: ample morning fog, daily temperature swings of 35 degrees, and in some cases, the golden-hued mix of sandy loam and clay known as Goldridge soil.

$40If you donate this item towards the care of a Halleck Creek Ranch horse, Lisa will DOUBLE it and treat two horses.
The Masterson Method is a unique, interactive method of equine bodywork that anyone can learn, to help build trust with the horse. Years of stress and stiffness can often be resolved in a few sessions, by relieving built-up tension in core muscles and key junctions of the body that affect the horse's performance.
With The Masterson Method , you learn to recognize and use the responses of the horse to find and release tension. In contrast to traditional massage, it works with the horse's nervous system and the horse actively participates in the process. It is something you do with the horse, rather than to the horse. This participation and interaction are what makes the method fulfilling for those who use it and transformational for the horse.
Testimonial after testimonial describe radically improved performance, movement, behavior, and relationship with the owner, as a result of The Masterson Method.
Lisa Star, MMCP - is a Masterson Method Certified Practitioner. She is offering a full session of approximately 1.5 to 2 hours (depending on the horse). She will explore an intake with the owner and then proceed with the session. The horse will thank you!
