There are wineries that you go to for it's beauty, ambiance and quality of wine. This one has all of it.
It is kind of secluded, but within the Russian River valley. When you actually find the sign for it you might think you are not actually at the winery yet. It is very understated. But, as you walk in it is like Dorothy opening the door to Oz...you get it. The interior is all a natural palette, with a feel of an upscale wine cellar. I did not have a chance to tour the entire facility, only downstairs and the garden. The tasting hostess greeted me warmly and took me through their awesome offerings. This is a Pinot Noir/Chardonnay house. (Burgundy) All of them were very good, but each had their own unique personalities.
There was also a patio with a wonderful canvas canopy covering. It has an awesome view of Taylor Mountain and the estate vineyards surrounding. My favorite feature was the organic gardens. There was kale, chard, lavendar, herbs, vegetables and happy bees.
While this was just a quick stop for me it will be one I return to. Next time I will try out their lunch offerings and get deeper into the wines.
Cheers.
