Switchback Ridge

Switchback Ridge produces handcrafted estate grown wines sourced exclusively from the Peterson Family Vineyard in Calistoga. The property has been in the Peterson family since 1914 and encompasses nearly 100 acres located at the mouth of Dutch Henry Canyon. Varietals grown and produced include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petite Sirah. The rich, rocky soils of this beautiful vineyard property consistently produce low yields of intensely flavored fruit, resulting in extremely concentrated, fruit driven wines that are the hallmark of Switchback Ridge.

Birdstone Winery

Tony and Kimberly Kirk established Birdstone Winery with the goal of producing world-class wines from Madera-appellation grapes. A friends and family effort from the start, Birdstone’s winemaking team includes Tony, Kimberly and their sons Travis & Conner. It’s not uncommon to find Tony & Kim’s siblings, parents or friends behind the bar in the Tasting Room or helping to crush grapes during harvest.

Capay Valley Vineyards

Capay Valley Vineyards was established in 1998 by Tom Frederick and Pam Welch, long time residents of Capay Valley, CA. This beautiful valley is located in the northwest corner of Yolo County bordering Napa and Lake counties. It is approximately 1½ hours from San Francisco and an hour from Sacramento.

Capay Valley Vineyards produces wines from their own grapes. Varietals were chosen to complement the climate and soils. All vineyard tasks - pruning, shoot thinning, and harvesting are done by hand and tailored to each variety. Harvesting is done at night to ensure that the fruit is cool to start the winemaking process.

Mandeville Vineyards

Larry Gilman is the hands-on owner and farmer of MANDEVILLE VINEYARDS. Larry had a vision for the vineyard when the location of his future vineyard was impassible, and almost impossible to get uphill behind the family house.
Larry is an actor and director and has won awards for directing THE ZOO STORY, with Woody Harrelson.

He has performed and directed in NY, and LA, and has been on Broadway, Off-Broadway, regional theater, television and movies. It is fair to say Larry is a  busy man. Yet Larry has a passion for life and to be in his life, rather than watching it simply passing him by. With no guarantee of success to follow his passion, Larry and his family have set off to make the best wine, with the most hands-on, and the best grapes, that the climate and soil will allow. 

Turtle Rock Ridge

Turtle Rock Ridge is a Ramona winery located in the beautiful back country of San Diego county. Our name was inspired by our very own granite monolith that towers above our vineyard.

We feature a selection of red and white wines, and have a velvety smooth port style wine called "Chocolate Turtle". We are very proud to share the fact that many of our wines have won awards.

Sequoia Grove Vineyards

The staff was great and wines are amazing. Vicky was very warm and welcoming. We went on a Friday evening it was busy but still attentive to our needs.One of the bigger wineries, open to the public, that gets a lot of foot traffic. But heck, the wines are great! so no complaining. Some really unique blends mixed in with the more traditional. Their at the vineyard only Gewurztraminer was heaven and the Ridiculous Red plus some good Cabs and solid Sauvignon Blanc.

Carter Cellars

Carter Cellars produced their first vintage in 1998 with the help of veteran Winemaker Nils Venge. Since then they have had a string of fantastic releases and highly rated wines. Their focus has long been big Napa Cabernet, Merlot and Blends. They now focus on Vineyard Designate Cabernet Sauvignon and Red Blends from the famous Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville and the steeply terraced Hossfeld Vineyard in Soda Canyon. The Carter Cellars wines are all deeply extracted and highly nuanced with bright fruit and intense structure that can be appreciated young, but will reward patience in the cellar.

Plumpjack Winery

PlumpJack Winery is a boutique winery in Oakville, California specializing in premium Cabernet Sauvignon wines. PlumpJack was the first winery in Napa Valley to use screwcaps as a wine closure on super premium wines. Approachable, care-free tasting style where you walk up to the counter, decide how you want to taste, and let it happen. It's a relatively small tasting room but it really works because it never feels crowded. Five-star service, everyone there clearly loves what they do and do so without any sort of attitude. Bonus-points for being so nice about our driver sharing a bit of the tasting with me.

They're really known for their Cabs. Beautiful structure, dark cherry berry goodness with hints of mocha. Don't forget about the Chard though! It's surprisingly crisp with magnificent acidity and lovely baked apple aromas.
