This is the winery Chad and I belong to. Ask for the cheese and wine paring and you won't be disappointed ($25 a person). It is one of the only places in Sonoma county that pairs wine with cheese :) They also have a happy hour Monday-Friday and a 4 course lunch paired with wine. You will enjoy natural wines crafted from their Napa and Sonoma vineyards accompanied by small bites created by their winery culinary team. After wine tasting, take a stroll down the street for lunch or dinner at Roof 106. Roof 106 is an elevated cocktail lounge and open-air restaurant.
