We absolutely loved our food and wine tasting experience at Capo Creek Winery and if I could give…read moreit more than 5 stars I would! We absolutely loved everything about this place! This hidden gem winery is tucked away in the beautiful Dry Creek Valley. It is absolutely gorgeous and provides an intimate and elevated experience that is definitely worth experiencing! If you are looking for an elevated experience in wine country, look no further! There is a garden area that overlooks the vineyards that we enjoyed during our food and wine pairing and the views were spectacular. They also have a cave as well as a RTV experience if you are looking for a unique private experience away from it all. The service at this winery is excellent! Some of the tastings are with Mary Roy herself and these experiences are extra special since she is the owner, chef, and winemaker. She is an incredible woman that excels at everything she does. Thankfully for me, that includes exceptional wine and food pairings! The food is flavorful and phenomenal and they even have bees onsite where the honey is used to make their amazing chocolates! You are in for a real treat with the food and wine pairings here! Highly recommend visiting Capo Creek Winery if you are in the Healdsburg area!

S E R V I C E: Parking was plenty and right when we got out of our car, we were greeted by Mary and taken to our table right away. We had the best view and we were the only couple at that time! We booked a food and wine pairing so we brought our hungry tummies! F O O D & W I N E : First course: Rosè with Sonoma greens, burrata cheese, and candied pecans. Second course: Playlist with coconut lime chicken. Third course: Grenache with Harvest Raviolini. Fourth course: Zinfandel with stuffed piquillo peppers. Fifth course: Open Mic with mushroom tart. Dessert: Syrah with lemon curd cheesecake. My favorite pairing was the third course and of course, dessert! O V E R A L L: I highly recommend booking a food and wine pairing here. It's very intimate, staff were very personable, they pay great attention to details, and they're dog friendly! Would love to come back for their wine cave tours!

It was well worth the drive to visit.

My favorite part is that you can grab a glass and walk around the museum and see all of the local artwork along the walls and throughout the building.

I definitely recommend!

Equality Vines is such a gem! Not only were the wines absolutely delicious (I genuinely loved every…read moresingle one I tried), but the mission behind this place makes it even more special. I was so moved to learn that it's owned by Jim Obergefell, the plaintiff in the landmark Supreme Court marriage equality case. I also love that proceeds from the wines go to support causes that uplift women, the LGBTQ+ community, and other social justice initiatives. It felt so good to know that each sip was also supporting meaningful change. Each wine has a unique name like the "19th Amendment" which is so cool. The space was filled with LGBTQ+ artwork and it is even connected to a gallery down the hall. So you can grab your glass of wine and check out art Nextdoor. Lastly, the service was amazing. This place definitely has a mom and pop vibe and they make you feel super welcomed. We will definitely be back!

Their wine cave has a room that can accommodate larger parties if you are hosting any type of event. I personally tend to stick with the outdoor seating since you get good views of the vines and can look out across the valley. Both times I have gone they have had a nice soundtrack in the background that is upbeat but not obnoxious. My most recent tasting had a very wide spectrum of flavors with each wine having its own unique character. We hope to come back in the summer when they do events. This place is also kid friendly which is a huge plus for us.

Had a GREAT time here a few weeks ago. We got together a group of 10 of us for an afternoon trip…read morewith both wine and olive oil tasting. 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:))

May 6, 2025 - Cloverdale…read more This was our second visit to this winery, and it was just as lovely as our first visit. It's a family-owned winery, and very down to earth. Dog-friendly. Upon arrival, we were immediately greeted by Tilley, a rescued Aussie Cattle Dog. I LOVE that they list her as one of the team members on their website. There is a large tasting room, and an outdoor covered patio on a terrace overlooking the vineyard with amazing views. Once we chose where we wanted to sit, our host, Christy, gave us a complementary taste of rose'. The tasting fee is $20 per person, waived with a two-bottle purchase. The tasting menu is mostly reds, but started with a Viognier. We were then offered the chance to try any white that they had open. Such a relaxing and, really, a perfect wine tasting experience. Christy is friendly and knowledgeable. And then Jim Rickards (owner) came over and talked to us for a while. He is very personable, and had some wonderful stories. We shared conversation with him for quite a while. We enjoyed all the wines. We bought the rose' and the merlot. Prices range from $30-$39 for the whites, and from $35-$63 for the reds.

I had broken my foot and ankle five weeks ago, so my mom, boyfriend, friend, and I had driven about 40 minutes hoping to find a beautiful place to celebrate with a glass of wine and take a few birthday photos. We called Aesthete to see if they accepted walk-ins, and from the moment we arrived, everyone was incredibly warm, welcoming, and kind. I didn't catch the names of the two women who helped us, but they truly went above and beyond. One was the owner's daughter if I'm not mistaken. Absolute sweethearts. They even surprised us with a complimentary snack because it was my birthday. That small gesture meant so much and completely changed the course of our day. The rosé Pinot Noir was absolutely amazing--even as someone who usually doesn't enjoy white wines! We also ordered the wood-fired pizza, which was delicious. The property is beautiful, with animals and a peaceful creek you can walk to, making it such a relaxing place to spend an afternoon. We left smiling, feeling celebrated, and already talking about our next visit. Thank you for making my 26th birthday so special. We'll definitely be back!
