Wineries near Cotati

“Very professional and Knowledgeable!“

“Met Mikkel in a restaurant in Flagstaff after having a bottle of their Pinot with dinner. We loved the wine, and he was delightful. Didn't know he was in the restaurant until we started asking the waiter where we could find the wine. We had 2 cases shipped home, and just ordered 3 more!“

“Wonderful experience at the winery! Great selection and explanations of the wines by Max. Hidden gem of a winery! Beautiful and private setting. Highly recommend.“

“Loved this place! Glen and Gigi were so approachable and engaging. It was nice to go to a winery that didn’t feel pretentious, and the seating/ vibes were extremely comfortable. Underrated, great tastings, and the bottle : tasting ratio made sense. Bonus points- our dog was a welcome guest 😍“

“Stone Mason Cellars is an absolute gem! Our experience was made unforgettable thanks to Devon, who guided us through their incredible wine selection. Devon is not only knowledgeable but genuinely passionate. He gave us detailed descriptions of each wine, including perfect food pairings, making the tasting both educational and fun.

He went above and beyond by recommending some amazing local restaurants and even a fantastic dessert spot. His tips truly elevated our day. To top it off, Devon surprised us with a complimentary experimental wine, which was absolutely delicious!

If you’re visiting, do not miss Stonemason Cellars and especially ask for Devon. His expertise, friendliness, and attention to detail make this a must-visit experience. Highly, highly recommend!“

“Kyle is an amazing, knowledgeable guide through DRNK’s beautiful and approachable wines. His knowledge is impressive, and his enthusiasm is contagious. DRNK is definitely a Sonoma County Gem. Everything from their Pinots to their Cabs are absolutely delicious.“

“My wife and I did a tasting here with Dan, the owner, and had a great time. The wines were very good, the property is beautiful, and we really enjoyed learning about Dan and his wife’s story. This is a hidden gem! I also got to geek out by opening a bottle of bubbly with a Sabre!“

“Hook & Ladder was a really enjoyable stop and felt like the definition of a family-run winery experience.

Full disclosure: I’m more of a craft beer person while my wife is the wine enthusiast, but this ended up being one of those easy, low-pressure tasting experiences that makes wine country fun for everyone.

The tasting was reasonably priced and refreshingly simple, no complicated reservation process or over-the-top formality. Just walk in, sit down, and enjoy.

The indoor tasting space had a unique personality, with fire and police patches from surrounding agencies decorating the walls along with shirts from departments across the region. It added a personal, community-focused feel that made the space memorable and different from more polished winery tasting rooms.

Most seating leans toward an outdoor patio setup, but since it was cold during our visit we stayed inside and still had a great experience.

While we didn’t take any bottles home this time (we’ve actually seen their wine at Costco before), it was a fun and relaxed stop, perfect if you want a tasting experience without the complexity or pressure that sometimes comes with larger wineries.

A great casual addition to a Sonoma County wine day.“

“Such amazing wines, in a lovely vineyard. Delicious pinot noir and unique pinot noir blends that I cannot recommend more highly, and other varieties as well. We learned a lot of interesting information about the winemaker’s processes, and had such a pleasant tasting experience.“

“An unforgettable winery experience! The staff was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing their passion and expertise with every pour. The wines were outstanding, each showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and quality. To top it off, the property was absolutely stunning—beautiful vineyard views and a charming atmosphere made the visit even more special. A must-visit for any Chardonnay and Pinot Noir lover!“

“This was one of the most wonderful catered events I have attended in recent memory! My spouse and I hosted a Wedding Rehearsal Dinner for my son and his new spouse at DArgenzio Winery in Santa Rosa in early June of 2025. There were 35 attendees and we were catered to in the Cibo Rustico event room with a wine bar, relaxing music, bocci ball and incredible service. We selected numerous authentic Italian appetizers such as Vegan Salad, Ceasar's Salad, Rustic Fire Grilled Vegetables, Brochette breads, Caprisi Salad, and Pasta with Bolagnese and Pasta with Pesto sauces. That was followed by three delectable pizza selections (Margarita, Italian sausage and Pepperoni) and polished off with two desert selections of Chocolate Mouse and Tiramisu. Everyone in attendance was in awe of the dishes and ate until their hearts were content. We drank the DArgenzio Pinot Noir, Red Blend and Sauvignon Blanc and they were all terrific. I had forgotten that there was such a thing as "customer service" ever since the Covid19 debacle but the staff blew our socks off with friendly, attentive, professional and nurturing service for all members of the party. This was truly some of the best service I have ever seen and I would highly recommend this establishment. The cost was completely reasonable. My favorite parting shot of the event was watching all of our happy guests leave the event with boxes of awesome leftover food, bottles of extra wine and giant smiles on their face! Thank you DArgenzio Winery for making my Son's Wedding Rehearsal Dinner an unforgettable and epic event!“

“Beautiful property excellent staff and outstanding wine.“

“Love this unique place where you can get poets in a range of styles and from many different grapes. They also make vinegar and liqueurs. The staff like Amy and Bill are awesome as well. Great place to buy local unique gifts!“

“Had a lovely afternoon at DeLoach last week. Rick was an excellent host! We were greeted with sparkling Chardonnay and tasted wines from different appellations including the Estate Pinot Noir - one of our favorites! We also shared some charcuterie which is nice to have a little food with the wine.“

“Awesome people and awesome wines.“

“Matt was a great host! Thanks“

“I love this local winery and tasting room. Lorraine and Mike are always amazing hosts and their wines are delicious. So exicited that they are opening a distillery!“

“Lovely experience. This reminded me of the small family run tasting rooms in Virginia where people come sit outside and lounge all day. We did flights of the wine and cider and both were great. The two servers working were both personable welcoming and knowledgeable. We did the cheese tray and it was fabulous too. The only thing I would have done differently is to allow for more time here.“

“Wow! What an amazing winery. Chris did a fantastic job, ensuring we tried all the wines that he thought would best suite our pallets. Every single wine was absolutely amazing. We also became wine club members. Definitely a must visit! 💖🍷“

“This place is amazing. Great wines and wonderful staff. They have everything you need for tastings and great bottles of wine. Tyler and Evan was so great and explained so much about their beautiful wines. I would highly recommend the experience! ❤️“

“Beautiful scenery, great wines & the staff are amazing with great service and knowledge! Really had a fabulous time there!🍷“

“Delightful virtual tasting of their Blanc de Noirs“

“Really great wines! Each wine is such a thoughtful & unique expression of the vineyard it represents. Congratulations on critical acclaim!“

“Cozy spot in the historic railroad district. They offer flights (build your own), glasses, & bottles in a range of varieties. Most importantly, they have great live music several times per week. Best place in the area to relax and hear some tunes.“

“Beautiful setting. The Zinfandels are lovely. Dino was a fun host and made the experience of wine tasting his families wine fun. He may offer you the ghost pepper liquor snd this is not for the faint of heart...omg it was so HOT. Overall, thrilled to have had the opportunity to go to Battaglini Estate Winery it is a must visit. Thank you!“

“Such a great wine tasting experience!

Parking was easy and we were able to sit on the outdoor patio, which is absolutely beautiful. There’s a fountain and an olive tree in the center that makes the whole space feel really peaceful. My friend’s 4-year-old got to toss a penny in the fountain and make wishes, which was honestly a highlight of the day.

We visited during the week, so it was nice and relaxed without big crowds. Perfect for enjoying the wine and conversation.

Victoria hosted our tasting and she was fantastic and wonderful. She was so friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience feel welcoming and fun. We started with bubbles, then Chardonnay, rosé, and a few Pinots. Everything was great, and I ended up taking home a bottle of the Pinot and the rosé (which felt like the responsible thing to do… obviously).

I didn’t join the wine club today only because I’m already at capacity with wine memberships (a very good problem to have 😅), but hearing about the live music on weekends and the pick-up parties definitely has me reconsidering my current lineup.

I’ll absolutely be back. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to linger a little longer and plan your next visit before you’ve even left.“

“Kosta Browne has been our favorite wine membership for years, but we only recently made our first visit. My husband and I have been to wineries all over the state and beyond and both agreed this was our best tasting experience yet. Joe was friendly, knowledgable, and generally enjoyable to spend time with. The tour was thoughtful and the tasting room atmosphere was relaxed and intimate. There were several delicious places to grab lunch nearby as well. We look forward to our next visit.“

“Last night, at the Vault of Scottsdale, I had a marvelous experience with Adobe Road Wines and the TRG team. They had the iconic #66 TRG GT car that won the 24 Hours of Daytona victory, and they provided a marvelous collection of wines to the guests. Kevin Buckler and Callum were nice enough to give me a VIP pass to the event. The crew member for The Racers Group race team - Al - was very friendly and informative about the race team. He allowed me to sit in the car behind the wheel and get photos with it. The Vault also had a nice sports-car collection, and it was the perfect setting for the wine-tasting. Al and Cullum were nice enough to give me a tiny ARW token, and autograph some photos of the TRG GT America race-car I saw race in the streets of Nashville a few years ago. The food was delicious - the sweets with fruit, the cheese and crackers, and the best mashed potatoes I've had by far. The food was high-quality and I got to make some great connections. I wish I could attend every event that they host, but I will definitely return the next time they come to Arizona, hopefully for multiple events. Everyone - if they come to your location - this is a 100% great experience for both wine tasters and motorsports fans. Thanks to Kevin, Cullum, and Al for the terrific hospitality and VIP entrance. I admire and respect what Kevin Buckler is building up with Adobe and The Racers Group. If you're ever out in San Francisco area - go to Petaluma and visit their headquarters in-person. The scale is not high enough for me to justify the experience. So, I have to give it 5 out of 5. If not for the 5/5 scale, it'd be a 100/100. :)“

“Aaron gave us one of the best end of vintage tours EVER. We have been to several wineries at this point and he by far gave us the best information, was the most professional, and was a highlight of our trip. This man deserves a raise! Let him make his own wine??“

“So excited to be able to visit these wineries when we come to Sebastopol! Perception and Melissa Kelly Wines have long been my favorites. Mark and Missy are the ultimate hosts, and know how to make everyone feel connected to the story of the wine, making me love it even more!“

“One of my favorite wineries. Such a hidden gem. The owner was super nice and very fun to chat with. The experience was very relaxing and intimate. Went here with my brother a few years ago and looking to go back next time I'm in the area. I thought I was only a white wine girly but was blown away by the cab!“

“We have spent many a day and night in areas around Russian River and Sonoma and have purchased thousands of dollars in high end Pinots aaannnddddddddddddd these guys take the hat on best Pinot in our book. Taste, quality, price. And awesome experience with winery!“

“Love everything about this place ❤️“

“This is a classic to Sonoma/Russian River valley...The winemaker Anthony's hard work and dedication astound me! I love that you can drink this wine alone or it would pair with really any dish you are serving! The profile of this wine is very true and has just the right amount of balance to make you want another glass! Thank you for everything! This was amazing!!“

“My daughter and son-in-law took myself and our family there for my birthday dinner. We had so much fun. The staff was wonderful and the food delightful. I personally had the lamb. Wow! I love lamb, but never, never had it this tender.Each of us bragged about our dinner choices.I recommend this restaurant. Going there again tonight.“

“Fog Crest is an incredible Winery in Sonoma County just a short drive from Sebastopol. The wines are superb starting with a rose two chardonnay's and two Reserve Pinot noirs to delight yourself with this winery. Connie runs tasting room with a beautiful smile“

“Sending goodwill from Brooklyn....big fans of the whole Whobo thing.“
