I don't normally drink wine but came for the olive oil and the experience and it did not disappoint! I also eventually changed my mind that red wine can be good:) We were seated indoors and Edd gave us the rundown of what we'd be tasting for the afternoon complete with stories and lots of fun facts. (I now look at any bottles that say "cold pressed" with some light skepticism since it's clearly only written there for marketing purposes!) We ordered a selection of the panini sandwiches, the burrata and butternut squash salad, and the charcuterie board. The fire cheese was delicious and the spread was perfect. Throughout lunch, Edd brought us different wines to taste and by the end we were most definitely sold on the Stone Soup (the red version). The olive oil tasting was so much fun. First of all the bread was so delicious. And then we tasted about 15 (?) different olive oils or vinegars. The raspberry, lemon, and garlic ones were clear favorites. My personal favorites were the garlic and sage. Even though it was a bit of a rainy & cloudy day, the views from the patio were beautiful. We finished our wine out by the fire pit outside, and now I really need to come back during the summertime when the skies are more clear for the full experience. I left with lots of olive oil and great Christmas gifts for the family. The four piece olive oil sets are perfect for that and I brought one home for my family and we did our own inspired mini taste testing (I still miss Trattore's bread tho). 10/10 recommend and yes I definitely want to come back for the summer views and this pizza oven I keep reading in all the other reviews:))

We sat out on the patio overlooking the gardens. There is a forest like feel with all the tall trees surrounding. It was foggy on the day of our visit so we were unable to see the ocean or Farallon Island. The wine host was very knowledgeable about the wines and the area. They had a really great pricing deal when multiples of certain wines were purchased, I ended up leaving with 6 bottles. They do offer food pairings which looked amazing, but we didn't book that experience. This is a nice spot to visit if you're in the area. The winery is kid and dog friendly.

Came with high expectations and was not disappointed!…read more Made a last-minute request for a tasting at their Cloverdale location, and they made time for me that same day! I love supporting wineries run by female winemakers, and Peay's (pronounced "pay") winemaker is knocking it out of the park. Was given a private tour by Orion, as he kindly interrupted his lab work to give me the full download on Peay's history and evolution. They farm the grapes organically and have a large-scale fermentation operation that allows them to maximize the grape expression during the first fermentation without rushing to clear space for the later harvest. Their subterranean storage is compartmentalized into five, separately climate-controlled sections where the wines are stored for barrel aging. The amount of intentionality and control to each step of the process is what makes their wines so consistent and delicious! My absolute favorite wine of theirs is the 2018 Syrah (which is sadly out of stock)! I ended up purchasing their 2019 Savoy Pinot Noir and 2018 Les Titans. Anyone who enjoys West Sonoma AVA needs to give Peay a visit! Their cold climate Syrahs and Pinots bring an earthy minerality that I literally cannot stop drinking!

Just came from their release party today and I certainly enjoyed it! People are very nice, although…read moretheir regular staff are not very well informed about their wines. In general, they have EXCELLENT Syrah, but great pinot (great but not excellent). Their Syrah easily stand out and I consider it to be really top notch quality. Their Pinot Noir is indeed good and borderline great, other more exceptional Pinot Noir can be had at other wineries. I definitely like this place and I would recommend this to anyone.
