Paradise Ridge Winery
Paradise Ridge Winery, just off of Fountaingrove, on Thomas Lake Harris Road, perched on its ridge above Santa Rosa: Welcome to Paradise….
Paradise Ridge Winery, with arguably one of the most beautiful views in Sonoma County, sits perched on its romantic ridge, surrounded by rolling vineyards, gardens and amazing art in Marijke’s Grove, incorporating wedding and meeting sites, daily tastings of their restrained, balanced, food-friendly wines, Wine & Food Pairings, Paradise Found Wine Club, the Nagasawa Fountaingrove Exhibit, warm hospitality AND an amazing view of the Santa Rosa Plain west to the coastal mountains. The Byck family story illustrates a perfect blending of people, place and wine. This is a complete winery experience, encompassing as it does not just delicious wines, but warm presentation, spectacular venue, art, history, tradition, romance, striking spots for picnics, llamas grazing the hillsides, sunsets…a joyful, inspiring, fun, special place to visit.
Wind your way up off of the 101 into historic Fountaingrove:
The history-rich, and aptly named, Round Barn at Fountaingrove.
Watch for Thomas Lake Harris Road- a quick turn to the north (left), off of the Fountaingrove Parkway- meandering through some residential blocks- keep going- you are in the right place:
Watch for the banners and the distinctive signs just to your left (west)….
As you enter the winery grounds along the curving driveway, you will be amazed and surprised by the installations of art, just popping up in this natural setting.
Llamas, non-Dalai….
You betcha! (Ed. note: I said that years before Sarah Palin….)
View west from the deck….
Ditto.
A loaf of bread, a jug of wine…oh yeah, and thou….
Nagasawa Exhibit- romantic stories, winemaking detail and history of Fountaingrove….
Here’s looking at you, kids.
