    Wine tasting
    Melly G.

    We had such a great experience at Stonemason Cellars! We went wine tasting and Deven and TJ made the experience so fun, welcoming, and memorable. They were both super knowledgeable, attentive, and made us feel comfortable the entire time. The wine was amazing and the atmosphere was beautiful. You can tell they really care about creating a great experience for their guests. We'll definitely be back!

    This is such a fantastic, cute, and cozy spot in Santa Rosa with fantastic wines! I really enjoyed the tasting I had here! Devin is the best and he made me feel right at home during my tasting! He was so personable and it was really great to talk to him about the different varieties of wine that were offered. I would say that I have no palette for differentiating the different nuanced notes in wine but after a tasting with Devin - I really felt like my palette got more nuanced and I was able to pick out different spice and fruit notes after talking with him. I would definitely recommend this spot to everyone - especially if Devin is there!

    Was very fortunate to stop by this place recently. Had the opportunity to chat with the owner and even meet the wine maker. What a lovely corner location with great ambience they offer a unique wine tasting and food pairing formere $30 My absolute favorite is the cab franc. Stop by and let TJ teach you all about his wines. You won't be disappointed.

    Had a lovely experience here recently. Went with a couple gal pals and had wonderful service. Really like the the wines and the small bite accompaniments really complimented the wine beautifully. Nice small tasting room well appointed. Highly recommended

    This was my second visit to Stonemason Cellars, having stayed at a nearby hotel. It was the consistency of the wines and hospitality shown by TJ and Devin that will have me returning again and again. Even joined the wine club, as their wines were wonderful and truly can be considered "hand crafted". Highly recommend their sparkling (La Gare needs to take note, as this is one of the closest small production Methode Champenois wines I've had in this region). The food pairing that accompanied the tasting really highlighted the wines, making a compelling reason to really branch out with so many of TJ's wines. Looking forward to spending an evening here on my next trip. We even reached out after our trip to learn which one of their wines pairs with the delicious Bacon Jam we bought at the tasting room. The Zinfandel did not disappoint!

    Amazing experience. Devin was patient and informative for someone who is just getting into wine and learning my palette. He was knowledgeable and able to provide context to the wines I personally enjoy as well as the ones I might want to avoid based on preference. The food pairings were perfect, and added another level to the wine! A must for anyone looking for a relaxed atmosphere to enjoy some delicious wine.

    Downtown Santa Rosa has a new player in the wine tasting scene, and Stonemason Cellars plans on making their stay a long lasting one. Located on the corner of Davis and 5th Streets on the ground level of the AC Hotel by Marriott, Stonemason Cellars is so named after being inspired by Batista Maggetti, a Swiss stonemason and entrepreneur who opened the Greystone Winery, which is now the Culinary Institute of America in St. Helena. Stonemason Cellars prefers to think of their team members as those iconic living stones that make up the CIA, which are carefully molded and formed by time, where a cornerstone is selected from which a project is crafted, not unlike the grapes in which the wines at Stonemason Cellars are crafted. What brought me here with a friend on a recent weekend afternoon was their official opening of their wonderful tasting room, in which they invited people to enjoy their wine with food pairing in which they are intended to be paired with. Once we entered, we enjoyed a glass of their Elevate White Wine which was a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Viognier and sourced from the Anderson Valley and Sonoma County. With a light almost tropical feel this wine was paired with a cheese and cauliflower combination that really enhanced the flavor of both. For our second pour, we enjoyed their lovely 2021 Pinot Noir, which is locally sourced in Sonoma County near the Pacific Ocean, allowing for foggy conditions that contribute to a longer growing season and a more elegant flavor. With notes of cherries and blackberries, this wine was paired with a nice small slice of mushroom pizza and really went down smoothly. For our third pairing, we enjoyed their 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon, which was bio dynamically farmed from the hills above the Anderson Valley, is a blend of Merlot and Petit Sirah and featured flavors of blackberries and very little tannins, which makes for strong pairings with solid red and white meats, ranging from steaks to pork belly, of which we enjoyed. To wrap up our wine tasting adventure, we enjoyed Cobblestone Cuvée, which is Stonemason Cellars' take on sparkling wine. Nicely balanced and not overly fruit forward in its nature, thanks to a fresh acidity, this sparkling wine can easily be paired with so many different foods from oysters to desserts, of which we enjoyed sipping with Croissant Beignets, which was the perfect way to end our day's adventure. At Stonemason Cellars, it's a family affair, as they were founded by T.J. Elam is supported by his wife, who has a major role with the winery, in addition to his parents, who came to personally talk to us and promote the virtues of their wine. There wasn't much prodding that needed to be done, as my friend and I both found their wines delectable yet easy-going, which would make for great meal pairings and gifts. They were nice enough to give us an extra pour of their 2021 Cabernet Franc which was a members only wine and although still young, it was very good, and representative of the wines that their young family wants to make. Wines and stories like the ones that Stonemason Cellars is trying to bring to the local community are stories that we should be celebrating as they are bringing a fresh energy to Sonoma wine country and with their sleek new wine tasting room where locals and out of towners alike could enjoy a nice glass of wine with some fun food pairings. By naming themselves after the hard work of a Stonemason where their work is a grueling, long, and meticulous journey, yet always worth it when the final product brings the family together, it looks like they've have only just gotten this journey started, and I for one am happy to see them only grow at Stonemason Cellars.

    Stopped into the pick up party

    Had a great time at the opening party of Stone Mason Cellars in railroad square last weekend! They do it right in that they have appetizer food pairings with most of their wines!! And their wines are delicious from a white blend named Elevate to their many red wines and then they finished the day with an outstanding sparkling wine named Cobblestone Cuvée!! It's a win to visit TJ and Max (Max is there newer winemaker from France that worked at Screaming Eagle!!).

    We thoroughly enjoyed our experience! Devin expertly guided us through a tasting of the many excellent wines that Stonemason Cellars offers. Also enjoyed meeting Max (winemaker) and asking many questions to learn more about these great wines.

    Very modern tasting room
    Eric N.

    Excellent tasting room experience. TJ hosted us and is the actual winemaker/owner so we got great insights into all the wines and how they were made. The pairings of bites to go along with the wines was amazing and really showed how the wine would match with food. All the wines were delicious and very reasonably priced for the quality. Overall a very tasty informative visit that I highly recommend.

    Here with TJ loving the atmosphere and wine!

I'm just a good ole boy, wino in training, having moved here about a month ago from Silicon Valley (no place for ole men any-longer). The Trecini experience is different from what tourists seem to gravitate to, you know the disneyesque/romantic vision of a winery. Trecini is a tasting boutique where one enjoys privacy along with personal attention. Plenty of time for questions from a master at the trade. Tasting only whites, as red's chemical additives trigger a migraine, Cathleen pointed out many of their wines come from Italy with "no" additives. This led to me tasting one of their wonderful reds with no reaction. There was also a very interesting surprise when she introduced me to their Sparkling Rockpile Zinfandel. They partner with Mumm to produce this fun, delicious wine. I'm committed to the claims, purchased some. Where are they; Located on what some might call a side street from Downtown Santa Rosa. Highly recommend you give them a try.

The ambiance is upscale, chic and inviting. Seating is ample - 4th St Cellars offers a two story seating area, bar area seating and beautiful outdoor patio seating as well. For our visit we sat next to the fire place and shared a bottle of Pinot Noir. The employees were both welcoming and accommodating. They offered us a cheese plate to share which was a nice touch, we enjoyed the light snacks with our Pinot. At first the wine bar was fairly empty but before we knew it there was a full house. They had live music which we really enjoyed - the music wasn't so loud it over powered our conversation. Overall I'd give 4th St Cellars a 9/10. My only reservation and slight critique was the odd experience we had when selecting our wine. We asked for tastings of the Pinot and Cabernet before selecting our bottle. We were bought one tasting of each for my friend and I to share - meaning we shared our glass. While we didn't mind sharing germs I found it a bit odd lol. Our thought was we weren't clear in how we wanted to try the wine. Either way it wasn't a make or break for us and we still enjoyed our visit. 4th street cellars is a great stop for date night or a girls night! We will be returning.
