Experience Harvest Season in Sonoma Wine Country
If you’ve ever wondered when the best time to visit Sonoma County wine country is, ask any local and they’ll tell you: harvest season.
From late summer through fall, the vineyards of the Russian River Valley, Dry Creek Valley, and Alexander Valley come alive as grapes are picked, wine is being made, and wineries are filled with the excitement of a new vintage. The scent of freshly crushed grapes fills the air, tractors roll through the vineyards, and every tasting room offers a front-row seat to one of California wine country’s most exciting traditions.
The Harvest Wine Trail is your opportunity to experience this unforgettable season while exploring 20 exceptional wineries throughout Northern Sonoma County. Taste outstanding wines, discover hidden gems, meet the people behind the wines, and find new favorites to take home and enjoy long after harvest has ended.
Whether you’re planning a weekend getaway to Healdsburg, looking for the best wine tasting experience in Sonoma County, or searching for unique fall activities in wine country, Harvest Wine Trail is the perfect way to experience the region at its most authentic.
For just $50, enjoy a full day of tasting at 20 participating wineries with no additional tasting fees and no reservations required.
Simply purchase your ticket online, show it on your phone at each winery, and start exploring. Be sure to browse the event program before your visit to see the special wines, seasonal experiences, and harvest celebrations each winery has planned.
Come celebrate the most exciting time of year along the Wine Road—and experience why harvest season is when Sonoma Wine Country truly comes alive.
