33 Best Wineries in Santa Rosa

“We had an AMAZING time last week at Annadel Estate!!! This was by far our favorite winery (and wines) of the trip!! Our hosts were soooo knowledgeable, kind, and answered all our questions. Our visit featured delicious food pairings, an informative tour, and some hilarious surprises. Please be sure to add Annadel Estate winery to your Sonoma To Do list!! We’ll be back!!!“

“Was a little skeptical heading here for a tasting (given that it's not in a vineyard), but was pleasantly surprised at not only the atmosphere but also the wine and pairings. TJ did a fantastic job walking us though the selections and sharing the story of the family and how they farm and harvest. Love this place!“

“We enjoyed our tasting outside at the picnic tables with the official winery cats. Jeff shared information about the history of the winery and vineyards that produce their wines. He also shared information about which local wineries had live music over the weekend. A great afternoon.“

“Live this place. Member for 10 years. Enjoy it every time I come!“

“Such a lovely, casual Sunday. We brought our lunch, had a tasting in the Adirondacks in the shade of the redwoods, listening to great jazz/ funk on an otherwise lazy day. The price point is as palatable as their wine. Thank you, Hook and Ladder!“

“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!“

“We unfortunately had to last minute cancel our reservation bc I was experiencing a flare up. So they didn't miss out on another reservation or walk in I emailed the winery. The owner of this winery truly cares about customer service and the people who want to visit! What a kind human! We will definitely visit next time we are in CA and I'm so sad I missed them this time.“

“August 15th my family & visited this winery. There was a gentleman there who was our host. I cannot remember his name but he was amazing went above & beyond to make my 60th bday special. He gifted me a gold alligator wich I will cherish forever. Wine was tasty & the winery itself is so beautiful. Thank you for making my day!“

“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.“

“We were looking for a California Pinot Noir to serve at our wedding and ended up choosing Donelan Two Brothers. We had such an enjoyable tasting with Chris, who was incredibly knowledgeable and gave us a great introduction to Donelan’s wines and the story behind the family winery.

We were impressed across the board - elegant pinots, some really interesting syrahs, and chardonnays that had great balance and flavor without being overly buttery. We loved learning about Donelan’s focus on small-production wines and getting a sense for how the different vineyard locations come through in the wines. Two Brothers was the standout for us and ultimately an easy choice for our wedding.

We’re so excited to share it with our friends and family, and would absolutely recommend a visit!“

“A fantastic source for exceptional wine!“

“We’re from South Carolina and this was one of our first wine tastings in “Wine Country” and Debbie blew us away with her hospitality and knowledge of not only the wines but the whole wine making process. She was just an absolute joy to have guide us in our wine tasting experience!!!“

“This is one of my favorite wineries. It’s relaxed atmosphere, great wine and amazing staff are all part of why we continue to come back this fantastic winery.“

“Matt was a great host! Thanks“

“Serene and chill. We came on a lazy Thursday afternoon and with only one other party of 2 on site, we felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. A well manicured lawn and flower lined path was the backdrop for a comfy shaded outdoor seating area where we enjoyed our wine tasting. Inside, the space expands into multiple rooms for indoor seating with a cabin-like feel to it, complete with fireplaces, wooden ceiling beams, and plush dark chairs. Outside, a small stroll led us to a chicken coop and fruit and vegetable garden, where we were encouraged to freely sample (thank you). Our favorite pour was the Maffei Zinfandel, nice balance body and finish. Service matched the chill vibe and wasn't rushed, perfect for a relaxing day in Santa Rosa.“

“I'm writing specifically about the summer concert series they began several years ago. Their lawn area in nice and much of the space is covered by tents when it's hot. There are games to play and a small space dedicated to small chosen. The music has been great. I heard a band called Skyhawk. They were a lot of fun and were great musicians. This is a really fun way to spend a few relaxing afternoon hours on a nice summer day.“

“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“

“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.“

“A super cute little tasting room and deli off the downtown Santa Rosa square. We came in around 4pm on a Saturday to taste some wine. They fixed us up with flights and glasses for those who didn't want variety, and even though the deli was closed, they fixed us a little brie and crostini platter when we got munchies. Super nice people, good wine, good food - what more can you ask for?“

“Wish I had pictures, it was a few years back, we took our son and daughter in law. What a wonderful time! Good food, good company, a fantastic private music/comedian. Very personable and laid back vibe (Gary says groovy feel). Love love loved it, can’t wait for the next invite, I’ll be bring my daughter, son and their better half(s). A lovely family time, thank you Keven and Wendy!“

“We visit once a year ������beautiful area and great restaurant’s �“

“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!!“

“I’ve been to the Fisher Vineyards many times and on each occasion it seems to go up a notch in it’s quality and the experience. The Coach Insignia and Lamb are world-class cabs that you shouldn’t miss if you visit the Vineyard. . What a pleasant surprise to meet the matriarch of the vineyard Jowell once again and experience the wonderful hospitality with our very entertaining host ,Paul.“

“This place is a must stop ! From the award winning Zinfandel, to the gorgeous farmhouse with the amazing wrap around porch and views, we were blown away. Phil was incredible, he went above and beyond and made our special. Thank you Phil for helping make our anniversary trip unforgettable. We will be back next year!“

“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.“

“For obvious reasons, this is my wine of choice! The fact that the wine is absolutely fantastic is icing on the cake.“

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