Ledson Winery

Depending on what you are looking for, if you are looking for glamour and decent wine then this is the place.   The huge mansion, that some people refer to as the castle, is immaculate.  Its woodwork and craftsmanship is something to be in total awe of.  Walking inside the staff is very friendly and the tasting associates are sharply dressed with black slacks, classy black shirts and nice ties.  Though I am not a man of the past you get an old-time classy upscale bar vibe.
This winery sources grapes from all over Sonoma County and a few from Napa.  I was impressed with the Sauvignon Blanc from Napa County, their Viogner and their Cabernet Sauvignon from the Knights Valley AVA.  We, unfortunately, had to have two different people pouring for us.  We went from a gentleman we had developed a bit of a rapport with and were enjoying his service and experience to a young chap who, while he knew his wines, he really "pushed" the wines and "pushed" the club, like he is trained to do, but no one wants to experience the hard sell while enjoying an afternoon of tasting with family.
All in all, this is the kind of place I will experience once.  If you are out, go ahead and make a stop, enjoy the facility, gardens and take some pictures.  It really is a beautiful winery.
