Optima Wine Cellars

Optima began as a dream producing just 400 cases in 1984, now, the winery is continuing their tradition of producing premium, world class wines. Optima specializes in Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Zinfandel Port, and Chardonnay. Stopped by for Passport weekend. Amazing wines! Hard to find but well worth looking for.

Siduri Wines

Siduri, named after the Babylonian goddess of wine, embodies the founders' shared passion for pinot noir and their aspiration to create exceptional wines. Inspired by this vision, Adam Lee and Dianna Novy relocated from their native Texas to Sonoma County's renowned wine region. They dedicated years to working at small, family-owned wineries and devoted their spare time to mastering the art of grape growing and winemaking.

Their efforts bore fruit with the debut release of Siduri Wines in 1994, which garnered significant critical acclaim and launched a 25-year journey toward perfecting Pinot Noir. Today, Winemaker Matt Revelette oversees the production of more than 20 single-vineyard and appellation-specific Pinot Noir expressions, sourced from prestigious vineyard sites along the West Coast, from Santa Barbara, California to Willamette Valley, Oregon.

Frei Brothers Winery

Frei Brothers Reserve is a winemaking story more than a century in the making. In 1890, Swiss immigrant Andrew Frei purchased the core of what is now Frei Ranch in Sonoma County's Dry Creek Valley. The superb stretch of land was already a vineyard, but Frei brought it to prominence when he built a winery that produced 20,000 cases of wine annually by 1895. In 1903, Frei turned the winery over to his sons, Walter and Louis, who adopted the name Frei Brothers.

A foodie at heart, Eric likens the wines to a beautiful meal: "If you start out with really good fresh ingredients, I mean really good, you have the fundamental components for something extraordinary." Taking advantage of this premium growing region, and by hand-crafting each vintage, Eric Ross Winery takes that same approach when producing our wines. " Taste The Vineyard" that's what the wine should reflect.
