“Longtime fan of Toulouse Pinot“

“Truly a quintessential Anderson Valley experience. Unique sparkling wines, perfectly balanced nuances, poured with grace in a down to earth style. Sam (she) is just a delight. She always makes our visit fun and engaging. This is a not to be missed wine country experience.“

“I rolled in with friends for a Harvest Hosts overnight and met Sean inside the tasting room; he walked us out and pointed to several places we could set up. As in my photos, the field is wide open with shaded edges under big oaks and views of the Mendocino hills along Highway 128. Plenty of space to spread out without crowding other rigs. I was able to run the generator for AC during the warm afternoon, and once the sun dipped the air cooled off nicely, so the AC—and the generator—got a break.

Inside, the tasting felt easy and unhurried. Sean poured a thoughtful lineup that fits the area—Anderson Valley is tucked between the redwoods and the coast and leans toward cooler-climate styles. The surprise for me was their Dry Riesling; it’s the first dry Riesling I’ve genuinely liked, enough that I took home three bottles while my friends grabbed a case. The fresh-baked sourdough he handed us (that big round loaf in the photo) was crackly, and absolutely dangerous with butter.

Fair note for RVers: this is true dry camping—no power or water—so come self-sufficient and expect a basic field, not hookups. The afternoon heat can nudge you to run the generator, but evenings settle into that quiet country cool that makes sleeping easy.

I’d happily return for the relaxed vibe, welcoming staff, and simple, spacious overnight. Great fit for self-contained RV travelers who enjoy low-key tastings.“

“Ernest did a fantastic job! He was such a delight and so full of knowledge. As usual the L’Ermitage tasting was wonderful and the selection of small bites was enjoyed by all! We look forward to coming back next year to visit your wonderful vineyard again! Keep those bubbles and corks popping! Loved your sparkling wine for many years and more to come!“

“Attentive hospitality, beautiful wines that are not overpriced. Lovely outdoor tasting setting. Bring a picnic, walk the vineyards and hang out!“

“The winery is exquisite. Gorgeous patio and experience. Our server was terrific. Very friendly, knowledgeable and shared all wines in the portfolio. Wine was OK. Didn’t match with my flavor profile, but I can see how they will continue to be a player in the small production Anderson Valley Pinot world.“

“Nice scenery, beautiful wines and friendly people!“

“Great wine (especially their 2018 Zinfandel), friendly staff, gorgeous views of the valley, and level 2 charging for your EV while you sip!

Bonus: This was the first place I got to try Pinot Grapes! (prior to pressing, squeezing, etc.)“

“This is a very relaxed winery. We really enjoyed our wine guides, Angel and Rainbow. We loved the experience and wines so much that we attempted to change our travel plans to stay the night. The guides did their best to help us find lodging nearby. The wines in the valley tend to be lighter— perfect for summer sipping. We particularly enjoyed the the Zin and were delightfully surprised by the rose of Pinot.

Now that we have discovered the Alexander Valley and the lovely wines at Geeenwood, we will definitely book lodging in the Valley and plan a trip for several days.“

“Talented Chefs put out amazing meals. They keep you guessing with their “theme” nights on Thursday.“

“If you’re visiting Anderson Valley Goldeneye is a must do! Service is top notch, wines are delicious, and the grounds are stunning.The tasting experience is also unique. They flight out the tasting and bring to your table with a beautiful menu explaining each wine. The staff is knowledgeable and takes extra time to ensure you enjoy your time!“
