Tasting Room Activities

Now is the time to visit and watch the vineyards turn to fall colors. You are welcome to bring a picnic or order boxed lunch or cheese plate from us. Sip your wine and take in the serene vine-side views for a seasonal escape. Reserve a seat here. Friday-Monday 11 am - 4 pm.

Wine and Food Affair

Join us and 40+ wineries for a weekend where each winery has a different wine and food pairings. We will offer a Wine Country Pumpkin Soup by Chef Helena. You can choose to pair it with our new Sauvignon Blanc or the Italian style Cabernet/Sangiovese blend we call Opera Cuvee.

Scandinavian Christmas

November 27-29 we celebrate the advent of Christmas with Glögg, sweet treats, and Swedish Christmas decorations in our tasting room. You will also find Swedish Christmas decorations like the popular "Tomte" the Swedish Christmas gnome.Our winemaker makes a big batch of Glögg, a hot mulled wine with cinnamon, cloves, ginger, raisins and more, traditionally served the four weeks leading up to Christmas in the Scandinavian countries. Reserve a spot for wine tasting including Glögg and treats.

Our tasting room, tucked under a huge oak overlooking our vineyards, is an idyllic place to enjoy a well-aged Cabernet Sauvignon and other fine wines. West Wines is a family winery in Healdsburg's Dry Creek Valley, Sonoma County, established by Katarina Bonde and Bengt Akerlind in 1998. Our winemaking style is rooted in traditional French methods, which enhance the elegance and complexity of flavors from our estate grown grapes. We have two sustainably farmed vineyards, one creek-side on the valley floor and the other 400 feet up on a ridge with beautiful south and west exposure. Read more here.
