Banshee Winery
Banshee Winery produces affordable luxury wines that overdeliver on outstanding quality with balance, purity and depth of flavor. The winery puts a strong focus on Pinot Noir from the cool, rugged coastal areas of the Western Sonoma Coast and Sonoma County. A passion for single vineyard designates has driven Banshee to produce some of the best pinot noir in Sonoma County. To keep things interesting, the winery also bottles crisp Sauvignon Blanc, vibrant coastal Chardonnays, mouth-watering Rosé, bold and brawny Cabernets, and exciting varietals and red blends from Sonoma County.
Buena Vista Winery
Buena Vista’s founder, an exiled Hungarian known as The Count, was a flamboyant vinicultural pioneer in search of “purple gold.” The winery has endured for 150 years, following the imaginative vision of The Count. In 2011, Buena Vista Winery resumed winemaking in the first caves of the California wine world, crafting small-lot wines in open-top oak fermenters with native yeasts and hand punch-downs. In 2012, the winery reopened their historic Champagne Cellars to public tours. Today, Buena Vista produces an impressive array of wines: Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, Chardonnay, Rosé, and several types of sparkling wines.
Ferrari Carano Vineyards and Winery
Two women winemakers are the power duo behind Ferrari Carano. Winemaker Natalie West oversees the white wines, and Senior Winemaker Rebecca Dieke manages the reds. From a small, 30-acre plot of grapes purchased in 1979, to today’s 24 estate vineyards totaling approximately 1,200 acres, Ferrari-Carano owns some of the finest wine growing properties in all of California. Years ago, Ferrari-Carano committed to using sustainable farming practices to create impeccable wines.
Laurel Glen Vineyard
Shielded from the ocean fog on the eastern slopes of Sonoma Mountain, Laurel Glen’s vines grow in shallower, rockier soils than their valley floor cousins. These hardier vines produce smaller fruit with a higher ratio of skin to flesh, which delivers more aroma, flavor, and tannin. The result is a more complex and layered wine. Over the years, the vines (determined to be a genetically-unique clone) have been retrained from a sprawling canopy to the more traditional Bordeaux system, called Double Guyot, for more even ripening.
Limerick Lane Cellars
Limerick Lane sits where four unique appellations come together, on a 30-acre estate just inside the northeast corner of Sonoma County’s Russian River Valley. In an appellation that’s renowned for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, Limerick Lane grows and produces world-class Zinfandel and Rhone Varietals that are powerful and full-bodied but also strikingly fresh and bright. This unexpected combination of characteristics only occurs in their northeastern corner of the valley, where water levels, fog, wind and sun meet.
Martin Ray Vineyards & Winery
Martin Ray’s estate has twelve acres of varying clones of Pinot Noir vines, but in pursuit of the perfect wine, the winery also takes advantage of the wine-growing regions that surround them in the Russian River Valley. From dry-farmed, old-vine Chardonnay to Cabernet Sauvignon from the high summits of Diamond Mountain in Napa Valley, Martin Ray sources the highest quality fruit, thanks to carefully-maintained, decades-long relationships with local growers.
Mauritson Wines
The Mauritson Family has been farming in the Dry Creek Valley for more than 150 years. The family currently manages 310 vineyards acres spread across Dry Creek Valley, Alexander Valley and Rockpile Appellations. The combination of low air moisture, poor soils and moderate temperatures produces superior grapes. Owner Clay Mauritson launched the family winemaking business in 1998. Emma Kudritzki Hall has been serving as Winemaker since 2019 and shares Clay’s belief that the best wines capture a specific sense of place, along with the unique conditions of each vintage.
Silver Oak Cellars
Silver Oak started with two friends and a handshake. Their vision: focus on one varietal, Cabernet Sauvignon. Age it exclusively in American oak. And make it worthy of cellaring for decades to come. Now a national icon, Silver Oak has fueled America’s love affair with Cabernet Sauvignon. After a fire destroyed their historic Oakville winery, the owners sized the opportunity to rebuild a new, state-of-theart winery. Even though Silver Oak has marked its 50th year, the winery believes, “Our best wines are still ahead of us.”
