  Great Place For All Sorts Of Wine, Has A Better Selection Of Sweet Wines Than Most Places

  Fat Ass Ranch is a very nice vineyard with an excellent selection of sweet wines and flavored varieties. If you enjoy fruit wines, meads, and wines that fall outside the traditional categories, this is definitely a place you'll want to visit.
  
  In addition to the usual reds, whites, and dry, semi-dry, and sweet wines, they offer a wide variety of more unusual options. I've seen peach wine, watermelon Jolly Rancher wine, and even a cranberry fizz during the winter. There's a lot more to explore here than you might expect from a traditional vineyard.
  
  When I visited a few other wineries in the area, I described the types of wines I generally enjoy, including dessert wines, late harvest wines, and Muscats. More than once, I was told that I needed to visit Fat Ass Ranch, so I finally made it a stop on my wine-tasting trips.
  
  Located right along the 290 Wine Highway, it's one of many vineyards you can visit while exploring the area. However, if you prefer sweeter wines, fruit wines, or more unusual flavored varieties over traditional dry wines, I'd consider this a must-visit destination.
