I came out to Sebastopol for some solo time away from the craziness kids and work life. Connie was such a warm and welcoming presence as she came by with her each new pour.

This business does not care about it's customers and is so impossible to reach it's almost comical…read more I was a long-term customer of Fog Crest. In 2024 we received a shipment of wine where all the wine in the shipment was broken. In typical situations, wineries offer replacement of broken bottles, but Fog Crest was impossible to reach in spite of (literally) 50 phone calls and emails. Since I couldn't reach them, I canceled my subscription to their wine club. Flash forward a few months, they charge me another ~$500 on my credit card for wine, but never ship me any wine (in spite of the fact that I had already canceled online). Again, dozens of calls and emails, no answer and no response. Still trying. A few months after that, they charge me ANOTHER ~$500 on my credit card for wine, but don't ship that wine to me either. After probably 100 calls and emails, I finally talk to the wine club coordinator on the phone. She of course acknowledges my dozens of messages, and acknowledges my situation. She says she will replace the wine that was broken and figure out why they've been charging me for wine I haven't been receiving and make it right. But that she can't talk right now and she'd call me back with more information. That was a month ago. I've now called again dozens of times, and emailed. No response. Called and emailed the owner, no response. This is borderline criminal: $1,500 in charges for undelivered product, a non-existent customer service experience, and an online system so archaic that it doesn't process your cancelation and continues to charge you for product.

My first time to their location in Sebastopol. I typically go to the one in Healdsburg and enjoy…read morethat location quite a bit. I always come to listen to music- specifically jazz, which they feature quite a bit. The outdoor setting at this location is very nice. I could see it conducive for events or group reservations. I came with a friend to hear the music and there's plenty of seating. There's a huge redwood tree near the table which offers shade and there are also umbrellas in the sunnier locations. They were making pizza in their own pizza oven today- however for a 10 inch pizza I thought $22 was a little bit much. There are definitely a nice variety of Pinot's offered. However, I was in the mood for something chilled and I opted for their Rose of Pinot. I was pleased with the size of the pour but not sure I would order that variety again. I do appreciate that you can bring your own snacks there

Phenomenal tasting experience! We had a fantastic group…read moretasting with Halleck Vineyard at their temporary Santa Rosa location at Paradise Ridge. Francine and Rob were excellent hosts; Francine was warm and engaging and gave us a great education on the winery's history. The wine was excellent, and the pairings--cheese, chocolate, and surprising curry popcorn--were spot on. This is a small but mighty winery that delivers a massive experience. I'm already looking into joining their Inner Circle club. Don't miss this one!

I am also enamored with the dry white zin that drinks like one of the best rose's I've had (I don't know where the accent is on the keyboard ha ha). The food pairings are always thoughtful and delicious. Do not hesitate to enjoy a couple of hours there.

I'm not sure how much everything was, as it was paid for by work, so check on pricing if that factors into your decision. I think we had at least 6 tastings, possibly a couple extra. It was my third tasting of the day, so I didn't push things and I was already feeling toasty. I wasn't driving. :)

I specifically came back here with my friends to enjoy some wine and a great outdoor experience with hopefully the same hospitality we got last time. We arrived and we were seated...it is still beautiful, but it seemed like the person who took care of our tastings just appeared to be very distracted and not so into the wine pours...we got small explanations of what we were getting and probably got the smallest tasting pours I have ever encountered anywhere...in which we got five. I thought the price tag of 30pp they would not be so stingy...and we did purchase a few bottles but there was no discount on the tastings even for that. I would highly encourage you to go elsewhere if you want to get a proper tasting. This place is just not the same as it was....what a pity.

You will not be disappointed with the excellent wines at Lynmar…read more I have had the pleasure to visit with my friends and loved ones many vineyards along the west coast many times, traveling from Chapel Hill, NC. The owners, Lynn and Anisysa certainly are sharing their love and investment with those that appreciate great wine.

Pax Wines -- Sebastopol…read more What a little gem in The Barlow! Pax Wines has such a cool, relaxed atmosphere -- part wine tasting room, part cozy lounge. The indoor/outdoor space is beautiful, with art on the walls, comfortable leather couches and lounge seating inside, plus a lovely garden patio outside. The hospitality was amazing. Everyone was welcoming, knowledgeable and made the experience feel relaxed rather than rushed or pretentious. They also offer the perfect little bites to enjoy with your wine -- warm baguette with butter and rosemary, olives, charcuterie and assorted cheeses. Simple, delicious, and exactly what you want while sitting with a glass of wine. It's the kind of place where you plan to stop in for one glass and suddenly realize you've been sitting there enjoying yourself for a couple of hours. Such a great Sebastopol spot for wine, conversation and a relaxing afternoon. Definitely one of those places I'll be coming back to.
