I can’t praise The Wine Snob* Winery/Tasting Room enough. Suffice it to say that I have lived in the wine country for 20 years, in Glen Ellen (that’s a lot of tasting wine in Sonoma & Napa counties).
The Wine Snob* is simply the best!
We are inbetween Wine Clubs (past have been Jacuzzi, Lasseter etc.) We are definitely signing up for Wine Snob* Club as well as the satellite Champagne Club called Wolves~Lovers & Theives. Ask Ryan or Lindsey what these 3 words mean. The owners are always serving the libations, and pride of ownership is evident.
Gentlemen, remember that diamonds and bubbles are a girls ‘best friend!’

This was our second time here. We came a little later and Ryan was gracious enough to have us a bit after closing for a tasting with some friends who had never been. Along with the wine being top notch, Ryan is the best host taking his time to explain each pour, relating it to grape species grown, and how it is associated with local mountain lions living in the area. Our friends loved it so much they became members. Definitely recommend a visit here!

Had a great and authentic wine tasting experience with Ryan. Unlike a lot of the bigger wineries this wine maker focuses on non-traditional Sonoma grape varietals and sustainable production techniques. Their enthusiasm over nearby wildlife is the cherry on the cake.

If you’re looking for clean wines without all the additives and extra crap look no further! The founder, Ryan serves up a wonderful experience with his extensive knowledge of clean wines while pouring glasses of deliciousness. It’s a HOOT!

Was staying right down the street, and wanted a place to walk to and pick up some wine, this was the ticket. Truly a hidden gem in the cutest town in Sanoma valley. Happened in of trivia night, lots of fun. To home a Carmenere, which is hard to come by in the States! Wine tasting room where they source and make their own! Looking for someone special, an evening here will not disappointm

Nothing but grape in the bottle. Everything you want off the beaten path and just pure wine. No big corporate blah blah. And a great Glen Ellen vibe. You know you’ve won when one of the founders, Ryan, is the one pouring the wine. Enjoy!

Truly a hidden gem! Ryan and Lindsey have created a wonderful, welcoming space, and their wines are unique and delicious. A must-visit if you’re lucky enough to be in Glen Ellen.

Great wine, amazing hospitality. Visit!

We had such a great experience here! Ryan was very informative and we loved learning all about the pumas and how their wine came to be. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in the Glen Ellen area, it’s a hidden gem!

Wine Snob is a true gem in Glen Ellen, CA. We toured many fine vineyards during our trip to Sonoma and this was our last stop. The owner was there to personally delight us with his expertise and passion for wine. Well done Wine Snob. This is a must taste stop!

Paul Schaller

Excellent wine. Owner/winemaker actually waited on us. Very educational and excellent side stories of the business. Super service.

The Wine Snob* tasting room is great! The winemakers/owners have interesting varietals and the wine is delicious. The tasting fee is only 20.00. The tasting room itself is modern industrial but with an inviting feel. They also have a nice outside patio area. Cute boutique next door. Definitely recommend a visit to this tasting room!!
