The Perfect Manicure In Wine Country
The Santa Ynez Valley in California is known for having some of the world’s top vineyards and producing some of the finest wines around. While traveling through this region sipping, tasting and nibbling, your hands will definitely be on display wrapped around that wine glass or picking up a scrumptious hors d’hoeuvres, and the perfect manicure will make the tasting even finer. On a recent trip to the area for my brother’s wedding at Firestone Vineyard, all the ladies in the wedding first stopped in the nearby village of Solvang for fresh mani/pedis.

The wonderful nail spa Enchente is an absolute charming cottage of beauty with one of the best flower gardens I have ever seen. The front of the establishment is literally overflowing with fresh blooms, and then you walk into an explosion of femininity and see more nail polish colors then you can ever dream of seeing in a nail salon. I received one of the best manicures and pedicures ever from the owner Deborah Paxton, who gave us inside tips on where to eat, play and relax.
One of the salon’s specialties is the white chocolate raspberry truffle pedicure served with molton chocolate dessert, so ladies, no counting calories here – it’s all about pure indulgence. If you get tired of all the wine in the area but still want a tasty treat, try a champagne cocktail pedicure or one of the fabulous green apple martini or margarita pedicures with matching refreshments.
While receiving my treatments, Deborah filled me in on the new gel nail polish trend that women are loving. This gel formula polish dries instantly and can last up to 3 weeks without chipping or peeling. It’s a bit tough to get off but worth it if it lasts that long because it will save you money in polish changes. So if you find yourself in Southern California’s wine country and have some girl time, make sure you visit this flowering paradise and get your hands ready for all those toasts.
