“Wonderful atmosphere, gorgeous scenery, and Drea was so knowledgeable.“
“Fun time. Awesome grounds too.“
“I belonged to Amista 9 or 10 years ago. Attending #PassporttoDryCreek there in April, my girlfriend and I decided to join. I’ve always loved their sparkling wines. They have some wonderful new ones now.
I’m very happy with everything ever the prices! 😘“
“Love the atmosphere and champagnes !! Joined my first wine club with them !!“
“It was an exceptional visit to Limerick Lane Winery. We did our tasting outside among the grape vines. It is a beautiful place and our host Andy was fun, knowledgeable and happy to have us. I highly recommend a visit the wines are first class. We did take a bottle with us and shipped home some more. Thanks again.“
“Experience is superb! This family winery is large sale but still very close to their hearts. Katie, Hank, Linda and Harry were amazing hosts. Their winemakers were very busy yet still open to answer questions. Highly reccomend!“
“Outstanding experience at the Headelsburg tasting room, thanks to Tony, our primary server, and Joe. Experienced exceptional wines and we learned so much about the varietals and history of the vineyard. Great conversation, too. Williamson was the highlight of our short stay in Headelsburg.“

“Had lunch for the first time here today, a delicious one! The menu is huge, so I look forward to trying so many of their authentic dishes. Happy to have them in Healdsburg. -Ali Story“
“amazing wines, the owners are super personable and helpful, the charcuterie and the sangria were delicious!🍷🥂 5 star by far⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“
“We had an exceptional tour and tasting at Kokomo Winery- our favorite of our Sonoma County tour! Learning about the varied environmental nuances and how they influence the character and complexity of the wine added a whole new layer of appreciation. The staff all took such great care of us and showed their passion for this place and product. We also thoroughly enjoyed the unpretentious and charming aesthetic- We love Kokomo!“
“We met some friends here on a lovely but cool spring Sunday afternoon. We had such a lovely experience that we were the last visitors to leave, but the staff couldn’t be more patient. We had the charcuterie board with our tasting, and it was the most unique and delicious collection of local items. Both the wines were unique, flavorful, and reasonably priced. We loved it so much that the two couples each decided to join their club. While we went in loving the Sauvignon Blanc, we were most impressed with their Zins. They also offered our non drinker with a delicious sparkling water. We will return!“
“Porter Creek Winery was such a peaceful gem and one of the highlights of our wine country trip. The team (Crystal) went above and beyond to accommodate us, even staying a little late so we could enjoy the experience — and we’re so grateful they did!
The setting was absolutely stunning — quiet, serene, and surrounded by natural beauty. It was the kind of view that makes you want to take a deep breath and stay a while. The wines were just as memorable, especially the Zinfandels — rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced.
To top it all off, we were greeted by Poppy, the sweetest dog who made the whole experience even more charming. Between the warm hospitality, the incredible wines, and the peaceful ambiance, it was the perfect way to wind down our day.
Highly recommend Porter Creek for anyone looking for a relaxing, intimate tasting experience with a personal touch.“
“First class wines! Very knowledgeable staff! Beautiful views!“
“Such a beautiful winery I do wine tours and have visited many times and clients love Bella“
“Came here on a Tuesday around noon to try the "block stars" tasting flight. I ended up being the only customer till about 3 and had a great time getting to know Pam in the tasting room and learning more about the history of the vineyards! The wine was great (especially the sparkling pinot noir) and their location is perfect for sitting out on the back patio to enjoy the vineyards and mountains. Definitely a great stop!“
“I LOVE this place, been there 5 times. Great friendly vibe. I bring my friends when in town. Healthy and delicious! So full of flavor. Amazing variety of goodies in the salads and on the toasts. I was wishing for gluten free options, wish granted!“
“Had a wonderful tour and tasting with Kat. Loved the history, philosophy of the winery/vineyard and current wine making practices. The food and wine pairings were spot on. Our entire grow up (6 in all) lives EVERY wine we were served which usually doesn’t happen. It was all so well balanced and smooth and just extraordinarily made. Truly a treasured find.“

“The Healdsburg Counter-Operation
Healdsburg town square is usually an altar to high-end curation and quiet wealth, but if you walk a few blocks down the avenue, you find the perfect structural anomaly. A low-key, unpretentious patio sanctuary where the air is thick with acoustic guitar soundchecks rather than wine-tasting notes.
The miniature anarchist was sitting across from me on the wooden bench. She wasn't happy about the lack of pastries, but we managed to broker a tense peace treaty. The terms were simple: she got a local pizza box delivered straight to the gridiron table, and she agreed not to dismantle the patio.
With the asset secured, I turned my attention to the liquid evidence.
**The Forensic Breakdown:**
* **The Prime Suspect (16417.jpg):** A pint of Hazy IPA resting on a red cardboard coaster. It was an absolute masterpiece of low-transparency brewing—opaque, thick, and glowing with a deep orange radiance under the patio light. It hit like a velvet blackjack, delivering an awesome, tropical hit that made the valley heat entirely negotiable.
* **The Companion Ale (16416.jpg):** A secondary glass containing a clear, golden-hued traditional IPA. Crisp, sharp, and holding a thin rim of white foam against the glass like a defensive perimeter. A pink lifestyle magazine sat blurred in the background, a complete mismatch for the gritty, honest vibe of the table.
* **The Cold Alibi (16415.jpg):** A glass of ice-cold soda sweating heavily under the humid air, condensation running down the glass like tears from a broken informant. It sat next to the open pizza box, serving as the anarchist's primary fuel source.
**The Verdict:**
If you’re tired of the hyper-manicured wine-country racket and need an honest pint of top-tier hazy beer to settle your nerves, this is the best hideout in the valley. The protection tax is low, the beer is phenomenal, and the crowd actually lets you breathe. We’ll be back to run the same operation next time we're on this beat.“
“Still thinking about this spot since visiting last week! Brought some family in town after trying one of their delicious wines at a nearby restaurant. We enjoyed the beautiful wines, the cozy fun tasting room, the lovely doggo Soup and Eric led us through a tasting. We genuinely loved getting to know about him & his wife’s story and their love for wine and their brand. Joined the wine club and I am already looking forward to my next visit. If you’re visiting Healdsburg and want a personal experience this is the place people!!“
“We always love our visits to Soda Rock, and today's visit did not disappoint. The wines were all amazing, and Kyle, the tasting room attendant, was so personable and knowledgeable. It was an enjoyable experience. Cheers to Soda Rock!❤️🍷“
“We’ve been members at Talty Winery for over 10 years, and there’s a reason we keep coming back. 🍷 This place is more than a winery—it’s a home away from home. Michael, the owner and winemaker, makes every visit feel personal. His passion for Zinfandel shines through not only in the wine (which is consistently incredible), but in the warmth and hospitality he shows to every guest. The Zins are some of our all-time favorites, and sharing a glass with Michael always feels like catching up with an old friend. Talty isn’t just a stop on the wine trail—it’s a tradition for us. ♥️“

“So good! The Lox Toast was excellent and the super seed bread was to die for. I’d love the recipe.“
“Thank you for the amazing experience and your flexibility. We enjoyed your beautiful property and the delicious wine. We will for sure be back.“
“Excellent tasting with our hosts Delores and Tony, two of the best in the hospitality business! Orsi produces food-friendly, well balance wines with good aging potential. If you're looking for a rare Italian varietal that is unique to Orsi, you must try their Biancolella. In addition, loving their Nebbiolo and Montepulciano just to name a few. Beautiful grounds, family-owned, and exceptional service. Cin Cin!“
“First time back since they had to close for a couple of months due to that car incident. We had out of town visitors that we wanted to bring to BACI. A great experience. It was a busy evening but the service was excellent. The staff was welcoming.“
“Favorite wine tasting I’ve done to date. Our server was excellent, and the grounds are beautiful. Wandering around the gardens was a fun bonus, as was saying hi to Winston the pig (their mascot). Get a charcuterie board to accompany your tasting; well worth it!“
“Great Wine! The Pinot Noir is wonderful and this Year the Chardonnay is out of sight!“
“We came here on a Platypus tour. Very happy we did! Historically, Saini have sold the majority of their grapes to other wineries, but their on site production is growing. Still quite small at 2,000 cases. Great family history on the winery. Beautiful day for a tasting and a winery tour!“
“Even though I visited the tasting room at the end of the day, I was greeted by our smiling host Darriene with a glass of Merriam 25th Anniversary Blanc de Noirs sparkling wine. Even though we did not have enough time to have a full tasting, she accommodated us with a high-energy, abbreviated version that was well over the expectation. During this time, we had a surprise visitor drop by our table to introduce himself- Peter Merriam himself! Some of my favorites during the tasting were the Semillon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and a very limited production Petit Verdot. There are many great takeaways from this organically farmed estate: from the friendly greeting of dogs and the tranquility of the property to their polished hospitality, you're in good hands.“
“Great wine and great name. Good job family!’“
“Visited this area for a long weekend and this was our first stop for wine, conveniently located next to our air bnb. We loved the wine and Jennifer was a wealth of wine knowledge. She showed us great hospitality and gave us recommendations on the area. We loved Jane Bond, who was such a sweet cat, and loved this small winery. Gorgeous location and we will definitely be back.“
“Lambert Bridge Winery is top notch in customer service and ambience!! And they're super dog friendly too! One of the best wine tasting experiences I've ever had in Sonoma County
This winery is located off the beaten path. It may take a few twists and turns to get to but the drive is a beautiful adventure in itself. If you come here late October to mid November, you'll see the vineyards as well as its surrounding in gorgeous Fall colors. Such a treat!
We were in the area for just one night and just learned about Lambert winery the night before from the locals. We couldn't make online reservations but decided to stop by. And I'm glad we did! We were warmly welcomed in and offered a glass of house wine while waiting. The staff decided to offer us a short version of wine tasting and offered an option for us to purchase a bottle and some snacks so we could have a picnic ourselves in their gorgeous garden area. And of course, as a thanks to how friendly their service was, we opted for both options - short wine tasting first and picnics later
The lady who helped us with the wine tasting was so knowledgeable! She was the first one to explain to us the difference between wines in different regions in California. We learned so much and felt very welcomed.
After the short wine tasting, we were led to the garden area which charmed us instantly. Glasses were provided as well as drinking water. The garden was so well kept and surrounded by mountains and beautiful fall foliates. Such a zen sight to take in and sip on delicious wine !!!“

“They had 21 Pinot Noirs and one Chardonnay which was their first endeavor with that grape. They hit a home run with it. I was even able to get a chilled bottle, just what I was looking for on a hot day. The Pinots were all good, some very dry, some not so much but not jammy.“
“Great wines. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.“
“I thought this winery was totally awesome, Tony was very knowledgeable and helpful. The tastings and the food pairings were great. He went above and beyond what we expected, highly recommend.“
“Beautiful place. Slightly off the path. Sets high on a hill. Two sides of the property have delightful cozy garden seating with epic views of surrounding mountains & hills. This place will NOT disappoint. We enjoyed the rose. The stone red was smoky and rich if you desire a fantastic red. Bring your own snacks. The out front road is not very busy. Beautiful architecture & great grounds.“
“Located towards the back of an industrial park in Healdsburg sits a hidden gem. When you’re tired of wine tasting or if you truly love a unique experience come and try some amazing craft distilled liquor.
Tim and Shennon make some of the finest spirits I have ever tried.
The Highlight for me on this visit was the Hobs Heavy barrel aged gin, it’s truly exceptional.
The Sherry cask and Port finish bourbons are nice additions to their lineup. They have a wonderful single barrel 4 year 4 grain mash as well.“
“We visited Blanchard Family Wines January 2024. Mark (one of the owners ) spent well over an hour with us talking about their wines and about how he and his brother came to own a winery. We were so impressed with him and the wine! So much so we joined their club and have enjoyed every bottle. We don't claim to be wine cononosours but we have tasted enough wine to know the good from the bad. We love their wine and measure everyone else's against Blanchard. Mark is always attentive and helpful. We feel that we've joined more than a wine club. Thanks Mark for making our wine drinking so enjoyable.“
“Beautiful day to enjoy great wine.“
“My friend and I stumbled across this hidden gem winery while biking. Colin graciously gave us an impromptu tour and tasting! He was very knowledgeable, sharing his insights on Zinfandel history and the Sonoma wine region. The two Zinfandels, Chardonnay, and Cab we tried were wonderful. The ambiance was relaxing and perfect. Don’t miss this stop!“
“Wow -We visited the large house and winery. It was an amazing experience, wonderful wines and fantastic sunsets
The owners, John & Abbey were gracious and really informative
I’m planning on returning to this wonderful estate“
“Today we visited Overshine Winery in Healdsburg, California, and had such an amazing experience! The wines were absolutely delicious, super refreshing, fruit-forward, and different from the typical Sonoma County wine experience in the best way possible.
The property itself is beautiful, and the atmosphere is laid-back, welcoming, and fun. One of the things we loved most was learning about their unique backstory and the passion behind the winery.
They’re also incredibly dog-friendly, which made the visit even more special. They didn’t just allow dogs, they welcomed them with water, treats, and biscuits for our furry friends!
If you’re visiting the area and looking to support a local business with great wine, great people, and a chill vibe, I highly recommend checking out Overshine Winery for yourself. We’ll definitely be back!“

“My wife and I had a Signature Tasting at Medlock Ames recently and the experience was absolutely delightful. Eric was an incredible host. He was knowledgeable without being pretentious and he was simply a delight as he walked us through the tasting and history of the winery.
He was quick to answer any questions that we had and he even went out of his way to make our tasting that much more memorable. Not sure if it is typical for Medlock Ames, but we were the only ones there for the duration of our tasting. Eric mentioned that they do not want to overbook so he can dedicate enough time to help out any customers. That was apparent and much appreciated.
The tasting room itself is simple and comfortable. There is plenty of space in case they get crowded and the way that the seating is laid out makes you feel like you're in another world rather than at the corner of an intersection. Medlock Ames would definitely be on my shortlist for a tasting if I am in the area.“
“We were surprised, not only is there a great scenery with the rolling hills, the wine does not disappoint and is as good or better than wineries in the area.
Corey was an absolutely amazing host. Would recommend anything from the Russian river for an easy drink.“

“We enjoyed our visit. The team there spent time with us but not too much - leaving us alone to enjoy our time. Luke, Isaiah, Felicia thank you. Thanks for the “comparison” tastings. We tried a few of our favorites when we were in Napa and based on our time there - this will remain one.“

“We had reservations and were asked to make a change for a very special holiday party which we were happy to oblige. When we came for our reservation the food was outstanding and the service was incredible!! Everyone has been incredibly warm and inviting as well. Our surprise was when we were accommodated very generously for our r slight inconvenience. We can’t say enough good things about this place and everyone who were so pleasant and made our trip here the best! Thank you again!! We HIGHLY recommend this place!“
“Comstock Wines is set in an absolutely beautiful location. We had a seated tasting with Erik, who was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the wines. He made the entire experience both memorable and enjoyable. I learned a lot about wine, and his enthusiasm truly made the experience unforgettable! We loved the wines so much that my father-in-law even bought half a case to be shipped home to Florida. All in all, it was a fantastic experience.“

“I went to Acorn Cafe expecting a nice, responsible lunch. I left in a food coma, questioning every healthy choice I’ve ever made, and honestly? Zero regrets.
The place has serious range — breakfast, brunch, lunch, indoor seating, outdoor seating with an actual fireplace (fancy), and a friendly & professional staff.
I ordered the fried chicken sandwich against my better judgment — I usually treat deep-fried anything like a suspicious email attachment — and it was a full personality shift. Absolutely delicious. It came with homemade togarashi potato chips, which is not a combination I asked for but is one I will now demand for the rest of my life.
My dining companion got the breakfast burger, which somehow contains an egg AND hash browns INSIDE the burger, like the chef looked at breakfast and lunch and said “why not both, simultaneously, in your hand.” Perfection. Structurally impressive. Emotionally overwhelming.
The turkey clubhouse club also showed up and showed out — and bonus, some proceeds go to the local Boys & Girls Club, so you can feel slightly virtuous while inhaling bacon.
Verdict: We’re going back. We have breakfast entrees left to conquer, and frankly, I think Acorn Cafe has earned the right to ruin more of my meals.“
