From sparkling wine caves to horseback rides, retro picnics and vinyasa in the vineyards, these wineries offer experiences so epic, you’ll want to stay the entire day.
There was a time when winery visits consisted of sipping a flight in a crowded tasting room, then scurrying off to the next three or four wineries for a repeat experience. But these days, many wineries offer an entire array of temptations – from bocce courts and cabanas to food trucks, jeep tours, cave experiences and more – all designed to pair nicely with that bubbly, crisp sauv blanc or hearty zin, and encourage people to relax and spend the entire day at one winery.
Heavyweight restaurateur Charlie Palmer serves as the winery’s culinary advisor, while executive chef Thomas Bellec and chef de cuisine Todd Knoll execute an impressive food program out of the winery’s professional kitchen. The results range from the Rooted food and wine pairing to the Atelier Bricoleur , an exclusive four-hour, multi-course, chef’s table dinner.
For decades, her husband Charlie has been the go-to guy in West Sonoma, known for his vineyard and farm management practices and his prized grapes, used by such brands as Patz & Hall and Kosta Browne. Today, the family’s estate-only wine production is still kept small, and it’s arguably some of the best in the region.
