[quote=Anonymous]I'm from Sonoma County, and my family still lives there. I have family and friends who work in the wine industry.

Avoid some of the big commercial brands you see above. You're going to wine country. Try wines you can't easily get here.

I recommend a seated patio tasting at Twomey's Russian River tasting room. They're known for their Sauvignon Blanc, but their Pinot Noir is solid. The tasting room light and airy and has beautiful views. https://twomey.com/visit/healdsburg-russian-river-valley/.

Jordan Vineyard & Winery in Healdsburg offers many different options for experiences. Enjoy their food while you're there, https://www.jordanwinery.com.

If you like reds, by all means go to Silver Oak. They're Twomey's big sister and renowned for their Cabs. They have wineries in both Napa and Alexander Valleys, https://silveroak.com.

Iron Horse in Sebastopol has beautiful sparkling wines and lovely grounds, https://www.ironhorsevineyards.com/?utm_source=wcm&utm_medium=winecountry.com&utm_campaign=content.

If you want to enjoy a spa visit, Osmosis in Freestone is a standout and not typical. In addition to services, they'll serve you a healthy lunch, and you can spend time in the zen garden and tea room. https://www.osmosis.com/spa-menu/

The town of Occidental has a bohemian atmosphere and is worth visiting. The Union Hotel has existed since the 1800s and the Italian restaurant there is a fun place to eat and/or have a drink. https://unionhoteloccidental.com

If you tire of the wineries, horseback riding at the Chanslor Ranch in Bodega Bay is a wonderful way enjoy the stunning ocean views. https://chanslorstables.com/service/guided-trail-rides/

Keep in mind that by late September, many of the grapes will have already been harvested and it may not be as green as you would hope. [/quote]
