Since 2006 we have been on a journey, obsessively exploring California Pinot Noir. We started by partnering with California’s top Pinot Noir growers. In 2011 we added our first estate, Nevina’s Vineyard, a Sonoma Coast gem located 1,300 feet elevation in Occidental  just 6 miles from the coast. In 2015 we were named “Winemaker of the Year” by   SF Chronicle and we acquired our own small slice of the world famous Russian River Valley with Graton Ridge Vineyard where we have our winery, tasting room & courtyard. In 2019 one of our all time favorite Pinot Noir stylists,   Ross Cobb took over winemaking. In 2022 we opened a Tasting Lounge in Healdsburg so we could share our journey with even more pinotfiles. Our focus is on single vineyard Pinot Noirs from the best sites in top California AVAs. Furthermore is a study of the enchanting diversity of California’s coastal Pinot Noirs. Our philosophy is simple: low-impact, hand-crafted, small batch production allows the vineyards to speak for themselves.

Our guest experiences are designed to offer you a genuine taste of Gary Farrell Winery and Russian River Valley. Since our founding, our award-winning Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays have been anchored by three iconic Russian River Valley vineyards: Rochioli, Allen and Westside Farms. We have a several unique experiences designed to match varying interests, and we can offer more custom or private engagements by request at 707-473-2909.
