Medlock Ames Winery at Bell Mountain Ranch

Amazing wines!

Ellen & Andy did an amazing job to make our experience amazing! We came in 30 min before they closed and that didn't stop them from giving us a full service. We had an amazing experience because of them, very friendly, very accommodating! We bou multiple wines, jam and oil. Highly recommend!! We will definitely be back!!

Ellen and Andy went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. Their warm hospitality and attention to detail made us fall in love with this place. We’re already counting down the days until we can come back!

Loved our first-ever visit to Bell Mountain Ranch. Wow, what beautiful grounds and views. Shirley treated us like old friends and took such good care of us during the tour and tasting. Highly recommended if you’re in the Alexander Valley.

A charming spot with very friendly staff and amazing wines makes this gem a place you want to return to countless times.

A beautiful place to be in

We booked a private tour of Bell Mountain Ranch and ended up spending three hours touring and tasting at this incredible property. We learned so much about Medlock Ames' organic farming practices and winemaking in general thanks to the welcoming and knowledgeable staff.

The only thing better than the views at Bell Mountain are the wines themselves. We can't wait to return.

Picturesque and charming winery, tucked away in the winding roads of Healdsburg. Very friendly service, along with fantastic wine. Serene setting to just enjoy the good life with friends and family!

We “accidentally” went to the winery and not the tasting room. In between tastings, Eric accommodated us outside to a bottle and a couple of tastings. He was extremely personable and knowledgeable and the history of the winery and their conservation is unique. We loved the wine so much that we became members and will be back!

Great experience. It is a lovely property to visit and Eric made it both educational and fun. Unlike a lot tasting these days you are just sitting down there go through a few wine, we spend quite a bit time with our little ones walk around the property. Highly recommend!

We had such a lovely tasting this morning & hike up Bell Mountain for Earth Day. Taking home some bottles of The Flag. Thank you, Ames and Shirley. See you again soon ?

We've been members here for 8 years now. Ames Morison is a great winemaker and they have an ideal spot for wine growing. Great tasting room on Hwy 128 and an amazing farm, Bell Mountain Ranch (where the vineyards are) off Chalk Hill Road is beautiful. Eric Eichholz is a superb host and very knowledgeable of their wines and the property. Always a great experience.

After doing a LOT of research on the vineyards, wineries and tasting rooms in Sonoma, I found Medlock Ames and their Bell Mountain Tour & Tasting. I was very interested in the regenerative, organic, and sustainable focus that Medlock Ames has, as well as what promised to be an immersive experience rather than just a few pours at a commercial tasting room. I went with a friend and both of our expectations were not only met, but were far exceeded by the experience. We were greeted by the warm, hilarious, and exceedingly knowledgeable Eric, their senior wine educator, who handed us a deliciously chilled glass of sparkling wine as soon as we got of our car. Along with the incredibly magical location nestled in the vineyards, rolling hills, and beautiful oaks, the highlight was definitely Eric's enthusiasm for the place, the wines, and the people that comprise Medlock Ames. Everyone we met was so kind and happy to have us there, and they all went above and beyond to make it a wonderful experience. On top of it all, the wines we tried were absolutely scrumptious (and the accompanying cheese pairings were just as delicious). It was an incredibly fun and memorable afternoon, and I hope to be back again in the future!

Great wines and a great place. Hidden gem. Really out of the way. Very peaceful setting. Strong commitment to sustainability.

Beautiful spot, really delicious wines, particular good if your hunting for a smooth Cab Sauv!
