When fantasizing about one’s dream house, common players may include a sleek and modern cliff house by the sea or a tropical Hawaiian paradise complete with thatched roof and lazy, sun-bleached hammock. Perhaps a snowy mountain retreat comes to mind, fully stocked with all of the snowboarding gear one could hope for. Some may dream of making their home on an enormous yacht, having the ability to travel the world at a moment’s notice. We’d also wager that high on that list for many of us would be a gorgeously romantic vineyard home nestled between the grapevines. While for many of us, these idyllic homes are but fantasies or ambitious goals, it’s always fun to dip a toe into that fantasy world every now and then. Perusing real estate sites like Redfin and Zillow, clicking through photos of the homes we so crave, imagining how we’d fill the rooms and what our lives would look like in them is indeed a fun way to pass the time.

So if you, like us, share the fantasy of living on a vineyard, horseback riding through dusty rows of delicious grapes, plucking them from the vine and imagining what their wine will taste like, you may want to check out these listings. These vineyard homes are all currently on the market, just waiting for someone’s fantasy to become a reality.

Compared to other houses on this list, this home is an absolute steal. Built-in 1993, this 3,220-square-foot farmhouse-style home features more than 1,2000 square feet of porches alone.

If you have a soft spot for Oregon wines (as you should), you may be tempted by this custom-built dream home. While the house itself is an absolute stunner, we can’t get over the 6+ irrigated acres, raised garden beds, producing vineyard, fruit trees, chicken coop, and greenhouse. Oregon rain be damned, we’re never going back inside.

Don't throw away that cold brew just yet
Pouring cream in cold brew coffee

Made by steeping coffee grounds in cool water, cold brew coffee is a refreshing go-to cold coffee of choice for many coffee drinkers. Though typically enjoyed as a cold beverage, you may wonder: Can you heat up cold brew coffee? This unique coffee drink's appeal comes from its low acidity and high caffeine content -- all of which results from its long, cold-water steeping process that lasts between 12 and 24 hours.

But what if you prefer to enjoy it as a warm beverage? Surprisingly, when heated correctly, cold brew can be heated to enjoy as warm coffee. Here's how to make your cold brew coffee taste delicious when warmed.

Grenache wine: A complete guide to the best wine you don’t know much about
Put down the Cabernet and give this a try instead.
Red wine being poured into a glass

Grenache is arguably one of the most impeccable wines on the market while simultaneously having one of the most understated reputations. While wine professionals and connoisseurs have tremendous respect and even adoration for this particular varietal, the American market has yet to catch up. The big names in red wine, such as Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, tend to eclipse Grenache in the eye of the public, which is truly a travesty. While we're not here to shame the top dogs of the American wine world (they're popular for good reason, after all), Grenache certainly doesn't deserve to be brushed over.

Fabulously diverse and complex, Grenache is grown and produced with tremendous success all over the world. Its contribution to the legendary blends of Châteauneuf-du-Pape alone makes it worthy of applause, in our opinion. But Grenache is so much more than a contributor to a balanced blend.
