I contacted Gene several weeks in advance of our trip and he managed to address all of our varied interests. Specifically, we were interested in learning more about the winemaking process, biodynamic wineries, and tasting bold reds and some sparkling wine. Gene put together the following schedule for us, and we could not be more thrilled. Stonestreet Winery - Pretty good, but pricey, Cabernet Sauvignon. Too bad because the tasting room staff were really knowledgeable and friendly. Lancaster Estate - Our favorite! Here Gene scheduled a private tour of the estate and wine cave (where the barrels are stored). They only make four wines (sauvignon blanc, a cuvee, a cab, and a signature bordeaux blend), all of which are absolutely impeccable. We even considered joining the wine club, but the waiting list was too long for my patience. Robert Young Estate - Good scion; also known for their chardonnay but I personally found it too buttery. Tasting room staff was kinda tipsy too... Truett Hurst - A biodynamic winery specializing in zinfandel. I especially love their 2006 Red Rooster zin, which is really spicy and unusual (think cloves and cardamom). Montemaggiore - A small (10 acre), organic, estate winery owned by a family that's recently entered the winemaking trade. Gene scheduled an hour-long private chat with the owner/winemaker, and it was a phenomenal educational experience! Highly recommended. Many of the winery staff also seemed to really know and respect Gene, so they also gave us considerably more attention when we would walk in with Gene =) Go to tripadvisor.com if you want to see more reviews of Gene's services.

There is a garden area that overlooks the vineyards that we enjoyed during our food and wine pairing and the views were spectacular. They also have a cave as well as a RTV experience if you are looking for a unique private experience away from it all. The service at this winery is excellent! Some of the tastings are with Mary Roy herself and these experiences are extra special since she is the owner, chef, and winemaker. She is an incredible woman that excels at everything she does. Thankfully for me, that includes exceptional wine and food pairings! The food is flavorful and phenomenal and they even have bees onsite where the honey is used to make their amazing chocolates! You are in for a real treat with the food and wine pairings here! Highly recommend visiting Capo Creek Winery if you are in the Healdsburg area!

April 24, 2026 - Healdsburg, CA…read more This review is not based on a wine tasting experience, but rather on an interaction with the owners. We had a reservation for an overnight RV stay and wine tasting at a winery located down the road behind this one (through Harvest Hosts). When we pulled onto the access road, a car was parked in a way that blocked our ability to reach our destination. My husband went into the winery to politely ask if the car could be moved. He returned shortly after, followed by two women and a man, and what should have been a simple request turned into a surprisingly tense exchange. From where I sat, it was clear they were agitated, gesturing and raising their voices. This went on for several minutes. Eventually, the man moved the car--something that ultimately took no more than 30 seconds. The interaction itself was what made this so upsetting. My husband was told that the road was "their" road and that it was "their" parking spot, and they were initially unwilling to move the vehicle. However, the road is shared access for the neighboring winery, and the car was not parked in a designated space--it was blocking passage. We were simply trying to get to a confirmed reservation. The lack of courtesy and basic hospitality in this situation was disappointing and unexpected. Based on this interaction alone, I would not recommend this winery.
