We all did the Estate Tasting for $35 per person, which included five wines to sample while enjoying the absolutely gorgeous views. The service was decent, especially considering how busy it was when we visited. The staff still checked on us at a reasonable frequency, which was appreciated with such a large group. It's a beautiful spot to enjoy some wine and spend time with friends. If you're in the area, I definitely recommend stopping by, especially if you're visiting with a larger group!

Everything paired beautifully, and it was a fun way to experience their offerings. After our tasting, we stayed for a glass of Pinot and a cheese board, which was equally delicious, and we were able to try a couple of their mustards, one of which we ended up taking home! Shauna took care of us and was absolutely amazing! She was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience so enjoyable. We'd come back just to hang out with her. We visited on a weekday afternoon and had no trouble finding street parking, though I'm not sure what it's like during busier times. Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish. We'll definitely be back!

We stumbled across this property on a recent visit with my dad who lives in the area and I'm so glad that we did. We didn't have reservations but we're still accommodated. Chris took us through our tasting for the day and was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and had a ton of great food recommendations for the area. The estate tasting consisted of 6 wines for $35. We were given a delicious pour of their non vintage brut rose as a welcome pour. I enjoyed all of the wine that we tasted through. Somehow during our visit I missed their lavender gardens but that just means I have to plan another visit.

We have been wine club members for awhile, and have visited H&L countless times over the years, so we knew that hosting our rehearsal event here was the perfect choice! Devin, who helped us book, plan and host the event, went above and beyond for us in every way. He could not have made this event more stress-free for us, and he's also just an amazing guy who provided an awesome energy during our event (our guests loved talking to him and learning about the winery). Our ~70ish guests fit perfectly on the lawn and the team made the space feel intimate and beautifully arranged for our group. They let us not only arrive early to set up, but they graciously let us stay a little later when we lost track of time from having too much fun. We love Hook and Ladder even more now than we already did, and highly recommend hosting your next event in your beautiful space!!!

I'm finding that the pleasure in visiting is not merely what one finds in the wines, it lies in the…read morecharacter of the people. Cathleen Vicini (owner) is a delight to visit with, not just about wines but her dogs, parrot, the Italian influence in their wines (her husband), much more... I'm just a good ole boy, wino in training, having moved here about a month ago from Silicon Valley (no place for ole men any-longer). The Trecini experience is different from what tourists seem to gravitate to, you know the disneyesque/romantic vision of a winery. Trecini is a tasting boutique where one enjoys privacy along with personal attention. Plenty of time for questions from a master at the trade. Tasting only whites, as red's chemical additives trigger a migraine, Cathleen pointed out many of their wines come from Italy with "no" additives. This led to me tasting one of their wonderful reds with no reaction. There was also a very interesting surprise when she introduced me to their Sparkling Rockpile Zinfandel. They partner with Mumm to produce this fun, delicious wine. I'm committed to the claims, purchased some. Where are they; Located on what some might call a side street from Downtown Santa Rosa. Highly recommend you give them a try.

I purchased his Kerner, and the Black Roses Pinot Noir and the Syrah, his Co-conspirator Grenache, and his Black Roses Sangiovese all beautifully made. So we met up at 4th Street Cellars. And he brought me a glass of their Cabernet!! First thing is I love the atmosphere here, it's tastefully decorated in a dark wood minimalist style. Which is very comfortable!! And the lady working and pouring is friendly and knowledgeable about the wines! They have 3 brands the starting with it's least expensive brand Egret which has a Rose', an SB, a Chard, a Pinot Noir and a Cab all in the $20 range then comes the Bonneau series with a Chardonnay, a Pinot Noir, Cabernet, Zin and Petite Sirah, plus 2 dessert wines the Nectar of Chardonnay which is a late harvest Chardonnay and very delicious with acidity to create balance and make it better for food pairings and last is a semi-sec Chardonnay made in the style of a Vouvray from Loire Valley France usually off dry or slightly sweet and delicious. I wasn't able to taste the last brand named Opal Moon all they make is a Cabernet Sauvignon made from grapes in Rutherford Napa Valley at $78/btl. The Bonneau Cab is from Alexander Valley and is very good at a price of $48 while the Egret brand is from Sonoma County so everywhere and its price is $29 bucks!! Extremely affordable lighter bodied Cabernet Sauvignon! The lady working gave us a bowl of chips and gave us a choice between that and popcorn an extremely friendly gesture on her part. Wes was drinking a cider!! From a 16oz can. And that was it. A genuine experience on a cold rainy week day afternoon!!

The cozy vibe at D'Argenzio Winery created the perfect setting, and the entire night was beyond what we imagined. They also had tables, chairs, etc -- everything we needed which made it super stress free. We also really loved their wines, and got compliments from our guests! It was helpful to have beer options too for non-wine lovers. For our rehearsal dinner, Cibo Rustico Pizzeria was awesome - absolutely get the meatballs! The food was awesome, and set a great tone for the night. Thank you, Breanna, and everyone at D'Argenzio, for making our evening unforgettable. We can't recommend this venue enough!

The drive was pleasant and beautiful, and it was a good day to be out. As we approached Le Crema, we were romanced by the surrounding countryside. As we got inside, we walked up to the tasting room and then took our wine and went outside and enjoyed the view and the tasting. It was so wonderful. I wound up buying a couple bottles to take home with me and so did my daughter. A pallet is a very strange thing to explain to people because my taste and what I think about that wines flavors and nuances it really varies from person to person.

We were each giving a glass of the Pinot Noir Rose which was absolutely refreshing and delicious this was actually my favorite wine. We had wine tasting of both Red and White wines. I am more of a Pinot Noir drinker than Chardonnay. Every tasting we had was really good, but no of them topped that fantastic Rose. Ursula, I believe was her name was our wine host is she was amazing and explained the different wines and the vineyards and where their grapes are grown. After out tasting we had a really nice picnic outside and enjoyed each others company. I would definitely come back without a doubt.
