32 Best Wineries in Santa Rosa

“Amazing little gem. The pairing experience, esp the food detail, really surpass most wineries. Yes you don't get the view but the staff are extremely knowledgeable and simply ppl you'd want to hang out with. All of us left us at least 3 bottles and jam. Must visit.“

“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!!!“

“My boyfriend had found this place as a recommendation for desert wines- wines that I prefer to drink. It had always been hard for me to find options at usual wineries as I feel most of them don’t carry desert wines, but luckily harvest moon winery did. The staff there were super friendly and educational on telling us all about their flight of desert wine they brought out for us, and we had a great time! I feel like I finally found a winery I feel like I can go to where I have more options to have wine wise. I will definitely be ordering a bottle soon! Thank you! 😊“

“It’s so relaxed and has a very chill vibe. The outdoor seating is great. A lot of shade and the right amount of sun. Very reasonable prices for wine tasting and the wines taste fantastic here! Will definitely recommend visiting here if you are in the neighborhood.“

“I loved my visit to Inman Family Wines—such a refreshing, authentic experience in the Russian River Valley. Kathleen Inman, a woman winemaker and founder of this woman-owned winery, is clearly doing something special.
The wines are high-quality Russian River Valley Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and sparkling wines with an elegant, balanced, restrained, food-friendly, terroir-driven style—nothing overdone, just really beautiful, expressive wines. And the Grenache!
It’s a small production, sustainability-focused winery, and you can feel that care in everything. The tasting was personal and educational, not rushed or commercial at all—more authentic.
This is what wine tasting should feel like. I felt like I was in a lovely small village in France and I've found a true gem.“

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

“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!“

“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!“

“Beautiful property excellent staff and outstanding wine.“

“A fantastic source for exceptional wine!“

“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“

“Attended a private event here and I truly loved the experience. The interior was reminiscent of an older home you’d find in England. There were numerous kitchen tools on display while I was there and it reminded me of what you would see the Culinary Institute of America in Napa. It was really unexpected and I really loved it! And, the Pinot I tasted was very good - coming from my favorite appellation it was no surprise!“

“Such a great wine tasting experience!

Parking was easy and we were able to sit on the outdoor patio, which is absolutely beautiful. There’s a fountain and an olive tree in the center that makes the whole space feel really peaceful. My friend’s 4-year-old got to toss a penny in the fountain and make wishes, which was honestly a highlight of the day.

We visited during the week, so it was nice and relaxed without big crowds. Perfect for enjoying the wine and conversation.

Victoria hosted our tasting and she was fantastic and wonderful. She was so friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience feel welcoming and fun. We started with bubbles, then Chardonnay, rosé, and a few Pinots. Everything was great, and I ended up taking home a bottle of the Pinot and the rosé (which felt like the responsible thing to do… obviously).

I didn’t join the wine club today only because I’m already at capacity with wine memberships (a very good problem to have 😅), but hearing about the live music on weekends and the pick-up parties definitely has me reconsidering my current lineup.

I’ll absolutely be back. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to linger a little longer and plan your next visit before you’ve even left.“

“Liz Carney Oneill hosted us, ten BU 80 graduates, at the Donelan family winery. The family history and meticulously made wine created an exceptional experience. Chris's service and storytelling paired with Liz’s personal family portrayal created a once in a lifetime experience. Enjoyed by all and the California Donelan wine will be further shared and branded throughout Boston and New England by each of us. Thank you.“

“WONDERFUL under the radar winery, pouring multiple small-lot boutiques wineries. Very good tasting prices, you can even relax and buy wines by the glass! Large, airy tasting room, comfy seating, nice grounds with bocce, good staff. Winemakers are often on premises too. Big fun.“

“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.“

“Delightful virtual tasting of their Blanc de Noirs“

“Beautiful scenery, great wines & the staff are amazing with great service and knowledge! Really had a fabulous time there!🍷“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Great wine, fun pairing, and a wonderful host. Can't wait to come back and bring friends.“

“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?“

“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!!“

“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.“

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

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