Amista ~ making friends
Tasting daily from 11:00am – 3:30pm
Did you know Amista is the premiere producer of Dry Creek Valley sparkling wines? We are now in our 15th year of crafting sparkling wines using the traditional method for making French champagne. Our sparkling Blanc de Blanc and Sparkling Syrah are both made from grapes grown in our estate vineyards.
We also offer estate-grown Syrah, Chardonnay, Grenache and a Rhone style blend we call Tres, plus Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from the vineyards of our Healdsburg neighbors.
Our wines are food friendly and we encourage you to discover for yourself at one of our wine and food pairings.
Please join us in a toast to friendship! We believe that wine is a discovery to be shared with friends, old and new. We hope you will enjoy our wines, share them with friends and celebrate the friendly spirit of Sonoma wine country living.
~ Michael & Vicky Farrow, Proprietors
