    Incredible day out on the ranch. My parents are about 30mins away and well worth the drive. Slow pace on a Monday allowing us to soak in the ranch and we tasted the gelato and olive oils, very tasty any 3 people can share this easily 4. We tired both the reserve and red wine tasting. Protip:They will bring others to try if you have questions about which flight is best. Also ask for a side of bread with the gelato and oil

    Freaking love this place! So hard finding a place that has something to do for pregnant people . Took Husbie here for his bday ! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was such a beautiful day & the place was breathtaking. Love that you have a beautiful view overlooking nature and the pond[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . The service here was great ! Chris was super helpful & gave us the best service . He made our visit amazing & really enjoyed our conversations with him. We did the honey and cheese tasting $45. The cheeses were so good & the honey paired nicely with the Chevre & Brie. We also did the gelato & olive oil tasting $35 which is a must since it was super warm . They were paired with 3 olive oils . My favorite wasnthe Chai. We also did the non alcoholic tasting $22 which came with 2 Rose's & 2 shrubs of your choice . I wasn't a big fan of she shrubs since they tasted like Kombucha to me but i loved the Rose's . My absolute favorite . I will come back again since I really enjoyed our time here. Such a gem of a place.

    We found some cute chairs for little people

    LOVE visiting McEvoy Ranch when in wine country, it can even be a destination. This is almost a sanctuary for us that we share with friends and family after my cousin stumbled upon it and we went to explore one afternoon. We visit Petaluma often and always make a point to make a trip out to the ranch to pick up some great olive oil and enjoy an afternoon away from the rush of the real world. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is extremely gorgeous and peaceful here, the food is always impeccable, the tastings are unique and the service is wonderful[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Must book a reservation for any tasting or lunch (48 hours in advance) unless you are just doing a quick boutique stop for some olive oil, incredible choices for cheese, Salumi, tapenades, skincare or wine. I have been such a fan of McEvoy Ranch since they had a storefront at The Ferry Building in SF. Love all their EVOO, the wine stop pourers, and their Verde line of moisturizers is divine.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Huge olive farm with beautiful outdoor seating - serving food, wine and olive oil pairings.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had the gelato with olive oil pairing on a warm autumn day - perfection! And yes, we had wine also

[[HIGHLIGHT]]First the ranch is just so breezy, breathtaking and beautiful![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We did breath work in a very beautiful pagoda![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The details of the architecture was so thorough and well thought out![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is a giant garden that houses about 5,000 flowers![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is another room with Elton John's red piano signed by him![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]After our breath work, we felt restored and refreshed and we had our olive oil tasting and wine tasting![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The olive oil selection were all amazing! I love the citrus infused one! We had sparkling rose and pinot noir and both are very good! We also went to the shop to buy something for home and I got the olive oil lotion. Its smooth and creamy on the hands! The staff assigned to us is amazing! She is very helpful and accommodating! Cant wait to go back with my girls and try their long dinner service at night!

    Beautiful pastoral location!!!! It feels like a different world than city life. We came during January, which is a slower time of year, and so we didn't need a reservation nor was it busy. The wine is wonderful, but the olive is the BEST anywhere. The customer service was relaxed and friendly. The gift store has my favorite ODE products I order online. The face oil is the best on the market.

    View of the lake.

    Service went well! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Beautiful place to visit![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Bought some wine and oil. Unfortunately went on a Tuesday and they were closed for a tasting. Fortunately they attended us at their store even though, due to an appointment they had. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Got to walk around a bit. Lovely place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will return for a tasting and tour.

    This olive oil ranch is worth going to located right outside of Petaluma it has history, art , gardens architectural beauty and wonderful olive oil and wines. My friend was celebrating her birthday . She has discriminating taste and took us to this beautiful place. We had a great tour guide she knew a lot about art, history , wine, olive oil and about some of the plants. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It had a great outside area that you could taste olive oil and wine.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It is a worthwhile stop if you're in the area.

    What a find! I was recommended to come here by a friend and was blown away! It's a bit of a drive out of Petaluma but gorgeous drive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]All outdoor seating with fire pits and adirondack chairs that made it relaxing, with stunning views of the pond and surrounding hills.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered the valentines special tasting menu and loved the small bowls of multiple bites - the pot de creme was the best! We also did a wine tasting and enjoyed their reds, as well as the rose they greeted us with. And I loved the shop inside where you pay! Wine, bath products, specialty food items, Id come back just for the shop! I've told many people about this place already and I can't wait to come back.

    My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful tour and olive oil tasting at McEvoy's this week. Our tour guide was very engaging and we learned about the incredible life that Nan, the ranch's founder, had. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The property is beautiful and the product is fantastic.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service for the tasting was impeccable. We enjoyed every part of it. Highly recommend!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Had a lovely lunch with an incredible view at McEvoy Ranch today.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We tasted a flight of olive oils and wines with our delicious entrees. Our server, JoJo, was fantastic. She explained the history of the property and where all of the locally sourced ingredients came from. What a special day! Reserve in advanced for an exceptional experience.

    We came and did the olive oil tasting and had such a great time. What a hidden gem! Views, staff, and olive oil was all amazing. Dog friendly outside and the shop has so many great products/gifts. Can't wait to come back!

    Lavender, dahlias and food!
    John B.

    What a fantastic experience. Whoever thought of pairing olive oils and gelato is a flat out genius. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Always good to try new things, especially in such a beautifully serene place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Wish I could give more than 5 stars!

    What a spread!

    Are dogs allowed?

It was founded by husband-and-wife duo Garry and Joanne Brooks (the name "Brooks Note" combines Garry's last name and Joanne's maiden name, Note). Garry was a Navy veteran who transitioned into a lucrative career in tech, but after planting a small backyard vineyard, he realized his true passion was winemaking. He left the tech world, earned a degree in viticulture and enology from UC Davis, and cut his teeth at prestigious wineries like Ravenswood, Kosta Browne, and Dutton-Goldfield. They officially launched Brooks Note as a commercial label in 2011.  It is a must visit.

    If you're looking for one of the most genuine, down-to-earth wine experiences in Sonoma County,…read moreBarber Cellars is an absolute must. This is not your typical tasting room--it's a family-owned, hands-on winery where you can really feel the passion behind every bottle. Mike and Lorraine make the experience personal, welcoming, and incredibly informative without ever feeling pretentious. You're not just tasting wine--you're getting the story behind it. The wines are excellent--small-production, thoughtfully made, and true to the Petaluma Gap. We enjoyed it so much that we ended up joining the wine club, which has been a great way to stay connected and discover new releases. The setting inside the historic Hotel Petaluma is cozy and relaxed, and pairing their wines with the cheese selection makes it even better. And as a bonus, they also have Barber-Lee Spirits right next door, which is worth checking out as well. Whether you're a serious wine enthusiast or just looking for a fun, authentic stop in downtown Petaluma, this place delivers--great wine, great people, and zero attitude. We'll definitely be back again and again.

You will often be served by one of the wine makers, who will answer any questions you may have. Their Pinot Noir is a great expression of the local specialty. The "Kitten With a Whip" rose' is the most flavorful rose anywhere. The Pinot Gris is the best white wine anywhere. The Sangiovese is wonderful with food. They have also become the Petaluma Cheese Shop. They have delicious cheeses from this area and around the world. They also do sandwiches, fondue and dessert treats. The venue is a part of the restored historic Petaluma Hotel, a bright and airy space with cozy couches and some vintage video games.

Our reservation was for 3pm, we were running a little late from a previous tasting and the host said it was fine as long as we got there by 3:30pm! We were the only ones there, so service was quick and attentive. Our host talked with us about the history of the winery and gave some details about each wine we tasted. This winery does tastings for $25 each and you get to try 4-5 different wines. We enjoyed our experience here and thought the wines were good, but nothing really stood out to make it a spectacular experience. I would've enjoyed getting to interact with our host more but it seemed like she was busy cleaning things up since they were closing soon. Overall we still had a nice time here and it was a beautiful place to enjoy some wine!
