I visited several vineyards in Napa and Sonoma on this trip and thoroughly enjoyed this one. Maybe it was the beautiful architecture of the building and grounds, or the amazing brick oven pizza that we enjoyed for lunch...or maybe it was the gelato that proved to be the perfect sweet treat to round out our meal. It could have been the perfect Prosecco that kicked off our tasting (which I purchased) or the subsequent selection of 4 additional wines (2 of which I purchased). Whatever it was, it was perfect and was an awesome way to cap my trip. Oh...I also joined the VJB wine club...so there!

Founded by Henry and Vittorio Belmonte, Wellington Cellars is a winery where the passion for creating fine wines can be seen and tasted with each handcrafted bottle of wine.
We prefer to visit small and/or family owned vineyards to experience wines unavailable at home. Our wine consultant, Allie, was very knowledgeable about the wines produced by this small winery. She was very friendly and attentive. She did a good job of cross-promoting the sister winery, VJB, which led us to an great unexpected stop.

Thank you for considering Hamel Family Wines during your upcoming Sonoma visit. Each Experience is privately led by a Wine Ambassador, includes a tour, and wine tasting, and can include food pairings. In addition, a “dry” tasting is offered for non-wine drinkers who are enjoying the Experience with others. All tours are appointment only, and are available Thursday through Monday. At Hamel Family Wines, we strive to make great wine and to have fun doing so. We value quality over quantity, enjoyment over tedium and fostering long-term recurring relationships with our guests. We work hard to produce the highest quality wines in limited quantities from grapes grown on our Sonoma Valley and Moon Mountain District estate vineyards. We farm our vineyards with organic and biodynamic practices, always mindful of our role as responsible stewards of the land. We remain grateful for our guests, respectful of our neighbors and appreciative of the fine work that our team performs daily.
I booked the Reserve Experience for my family of four at Hamel Family Wines through their Facebook Messenger. The contact person Rachelle was very prompt with replies. The Reserve Experience combines wine tasting with four dishes of food pairings in the private dining room in their wine cave. The Hamel estate is so beautifully designed and immaculate. We were shown the facilities before settling in for the food and wines. Our guide Zakk told us a lot of information about the architecture (the main building and wine cave are just stunning), wine making process, and anecdotes, in such a funny and cheerful way, which made the experience even more memorable. The food was another highlight. All four dishes were absolutely delicious, more so than some other long established and well known restaurants in the area that we tried. The chef even made his own salt from local sea water. Some herbs were from the small garden in the property. The wines were impressive, so fragrant, too. I'm not much of a wine drinking person, so cannot describe the wine well. However, I absolutely love the whole experience. Special thanks goes to Zakk, the chef, and their team. Highly recommended.

Patz & Hall is currently offering Virtual Tasting Experiences & Curbside Pick Up by advance appointment.
Beautiful place from the moment you drive through the driveway My niece is a member there and she made a reservation for us on the cover patio I am from the east coast and I frequent the Northern Virginia wineries which are beautiful and good but most of them are kids friendly This place is very elegant and the wine oh the time is divine, we were blessed to have Patrick who is incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to share his knowledge with us I usually don't preferreds but I love everything Patrick poor in my glass that glorious day I love it so much I order to be delivered I drunk so much I gained a few lbs but I am not complaining it was worth it

Corner 103 is a winery offering a seated wine and food experience, of 7 award wining wines, in a beautiful corner tasting room on the Sonoma Plaza. Guests at Corner 103 will explore a wine tasting flight of seven wines from different AVA’s located throughout Sonoma County. Six of the seven wines are paired with a small food component to showcase how wine and food work together to bring out the best in each. In addition, guests will learn how to taste wine, what glass it should be served in, and the correct temperature in which it should be served, all while having a fun time with one of our staff! Enjoy the corner views of the Sonoma Plaza from our large windows, sit back, relax and have a good time.
We have been members for several years. Their wines are great and we love Lloyd (the owner) and Brent. They are both very friendly and knowledgeable.We feel like we're visiting friends when we go here. We especially like the wine and cheese pairings (Need to make appointment) This is one of the first places we want to go as soon as we can. We get our quarterly shipment but always order more in between because it's our favorite wine. If you're going to be in Sonoma I definately reccomend going here

A recommended wine-tasting venue in Sonoma Valley.
What a beautiful venue! We stopped by here too late in the afternoon to enjoy all of the grounds, but it was still a lovely stop. We were interested in just white wines, and they were all fantastic. I enjoyed the Chardonnay that we tried, but was most impressed with the Albariño. Yum.

We welcome you to visit our majestic fifth-generation, sustainably farmed estate in the heart of Sonoma County’s famed Valley of the Moon. Taste through our diverse portfolio of 100% estate produced wines surrounded by over a century of winemaking history, dramatic amphitheater of vineyards, relaxing shaded groves of Valley Oaks, and a serene reflection pool.
My husband and I visited the Kunde Winery today and did the mountaintop tasting, and it was wonderful! The view is unbeatable!! Our tour guide, Wade, was very hospitable, knowledgable, and fun, as well! We fell in love with the Red Dirt Red variety and left with a bottle. We would have joined the Wine Club if Kentucky, the bourbon capital, didn't have such strict rules on shipping outside alcohol in. We loved everything about our trip. This place is a MUST SEE!
