20 Best Wineries in Sebastopol

“Wonderful experience at the winery! Great selection and explanations of the wines by Max. Hidden gem of a winery! Beautiful and private setting. Highly recommend.“

“Delicious wine and knowledgeable staff!“

“Our tasting experience with Kyle was exceptional! Not only were the wines on point, you could really sense Kyle’s passion for DRNK and the industry in general. I was immediately won over when we were offered two different bubbles to start and our crew really appreciated how informative yet informal the experience was. It truly felt like friends chatting about food, wine, and culture while sipping some of the best juice around. So glad we found this place!

Ohhhh and the caves were so cool!!“

“Loved this place! Glen and Gigi were so approachable and engaging. It was nice to go to a winery that didn’t feel pretentious, and the seating/ vibes were extremely comfortable. Underrated, great tastings, and the bottle : tasting ratio made sense. Bonus points- our dog was a welcome guest 😍“

“We had such a lovely experience day tasting wine with the special food pairings. We will be adding this as necessary stop for our yearly gals vacation.“

“Amazing wine tasting in a natural beautiful environment“

“We happened upon this family-owned, small tasting room on our way back from Bodega Bay. I am so grateful we found this place. Lynn was absolutely amazing! She was welcoming and knowledgeable, an absolute GEM! The placed was packed and she still managed to make us feel special. We enjoyed EVERY wine we tasted & took a bunch home. Do not sleep on this amazing winery. Family run business doing it all the right way.“

“i drove all the way from the Los Angeles area just to come here. im a big fan of music and a big fan of wine, i couldnt ask for much more. i chose to sit outside but they have a small indoor area for tasting as well. They weren't incredibly busy when i came, it was just me and a couple so the service was immaculate. you MUST get a dog to get the full experience 😆. if youre a fan of Primus, they have their old tour bus on show and you can purchase some merchandise as well. my favorite was the Sonoma Coast Rosé, i took a bottle home for myself.“

“An unforgettable winery experience! The staff was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing their passion and expertise with every pour. The wines were outstanding, each showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and quality. To top it off, the property was absolutely stunning—beautiful vineyard views and a charming atmosphere made the visit even more special. A must-visit for any Chardonnay and Pinot Noir lover!“

“We had the best time here! It was our first winery of our trip and nothing else compared!

Bre did a wonderful job answering all our questions and taking us through their wines. She took us out into the vineyard, which was absolutely gorgeous.

The wines and whole experience were excellent! Go and enjoy!“

“My husband and I have been going to this winery for many years. It is a delightful, family owned and run business. All aspects are family run, from growing many of the grapes used in the wines, to the wine making, through to bottling and distribution. In non-covid times, they host tastings of their wines - both in bottle and some still in the barrel - paired with delicious food nibbles. I highly recommend their wines. Among my favorites are the old and mature vine zinfandel and the Platt vineyard Pinot.“

“Premier tasting experience to accompany their premier wine. In a recent trip to Napa, my wife and I agreed our Paul Hobbs tasting experience was the best overall. The beautiful property, intimate hospitality, and relaxed nature of our visit made this a stand out which we were very happy for because of how much we love their wine. Tyson, our host was happy to educate us on the wines while also answering all of our questions. Definitely recommend making a visit to enjoy a first class wine experience.“

“Just returned from California and a highlight of our trip was Koblers vineyard. Mike Jr was so passionate & informative when educating us on Koblers wine. His warm & welcoming demeanour really made our visit fun. We enjoyed the cheese & wine pairing. Such a wonderful host and the homely setting is lovely.
P.s. our wine survived the return journey to Scotland!“

“So excited to be able to visit these wineries when we come to Sebastopol! Perception and Melissa Kelly Wines have long been my favorites. Mark and Missy are the ultimate hosts, and know how to make everyone feel connected to the story of the wine, making me love it even more!“

“One of my favorite wineries. Such a hidden gem. The owner was super nice and very fun to chat with. The experience was very relaxing and intimate. Went here with my brother a few years ago and looking to go back next time I'm in the area. I thought I was only a white wine girly but was blown away by the cab!“

“Beautiful family run winery. I Highly recommend trying all their wines. Just grab a few bottles and enjoy, you won’t be disappointed.“

“Kosta Browne has been our favorite wine membership for years, but we only recently made our first visit. My husband and I have been to wineries all over the state and beyond and both agreed this was our best tasting experience yet. Joe was friendly, knowledgable, and generally enjoyable to spend time with. The tour was thoughtful and the tasting room atmosphere was relaxed and intimate. There were several delicious places to grab lunch nearby as well. We look forward to our next visit.“

“This rarely known winery provides tours to their vineyard and their generated farm that grows the grapes! They even let me eat the grapes that will make the same bottle of wine but 2024 vintage! A never had tasting experience. Highly recommended.“

“We have been members at Ektimo for a number of years. We discovered this gem in Sebastopol on a wine trip with some friends.

When I say this, it is 100% the truth... even though we may like some wines more than others, there has NEVER been a wine we just didn't like! I am a customer, and in no other way affiliated with Ektimo.

Julius is always an amazing host and has always been as accommodating as possible when we have special requests, as we live out of the state.

Anyone who belongs to wine clubs knows that after awhile, some clubs go out of favor. This is one that we really can't ever imagine leaving.

I can't recommend Ektimo or Julius enough!

Tom and Tammra (Cheers)“

“Lovely experience. This reminded me of the small family run tasting rooms in Virginia where people come sit outside and lounge all day. We did flights of the wine and cider and both were great. The two servers working were both personable welcoming and knowledgeable. We did the cheese tray and it was fabulous too. The only thing I would have done differently is to allow for more time here.“
