Photo Tour
We hope you enjoy a few selected images from around the winery. If you have been to the winery in the past you will surely recognize some recent changes. We have a new tasting room that is open to everyone and we are in the process of restoring the old tasting room to its original condition.

HISTORIC HOMESTEAD WITH CELLAR

The historic homestead and cellar were built in 1872 by Giovanni Lombardo who immigrated to the United States from Switzerland during the California Gold Rush. The second floor of the building was used for housing while the cellar was used as a winery. For years this quaint stone cellar has provided a unique atmosphere for wine tatsing.


REDWOOD GROVE AND POND

We have cool, shaded picnic sites in our redwood grove that sit alongside a stream that fills our pond above the old tasting room.

DISTILLERY

The old distillery building was built for the purpose of making brandy. We hope to soon restore it to working condition.

NEW TASTING ROOM

Our new tasting room was completed in November of 2002. The new tasting room has been built onto the existing winery building and accommodates customers more comfortably especially during the busy holidays. We've worked hard to make the new tasting room a unique an exciting addition to your visit to the winery. We hope you enjoy it.

PICNIC GROUNDS

Our picnic grounds are open year round for your enjoyment. Nestled in our pear orchard it is a beautiful spot to stop for lunch and enjoy a bottle of wine and sunshine.


ANTIQUE CARS


We have a small collection of antique cars and trucks that Greg has restored to working condition. If you like old cars and trucks keep your eye out for them around the ranch.

WINERY

Our winery facility is where all our wine is made and stored. We produce 25,000 cases a year.
