"Carneros Resort and Spa is rather more modern than the Tuscan-Provençal style that seems to dominate California wine country. Its style is a sort of rustic minimalism, with inspiration seemingly drawn from the American Midwest and Northeast. The corrugated metal roofs of the cottages are striking and unassuming at the same time, and fit well into the landscape of rolling hills and wide-open farmland." - Mark Fedeli
