Launched in early 2007, Wine Country This Month-Central Coast has been serving the rapidly developing wine regions of San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and Ventura counties. This edition is available at more than 200 locations throughout these counties and mailed outside of the market to key distribution points in the South Bay of San Francisco, the Central Valley and points south in Los Angeles and Orange counties. Filled with the same colorful and valuable content as the Northern California edition, this has quickly taken hold as the "go to" publication for visitors and professionals who serve visitors of the Central Coast.
