Nestled in picturesque Dry Creek Valley, Ferrari-Carano is home to award-winning wines, acres of beautiful gardens and breathtaking vineyard views. Starting with a small, 30-acre vineyard in the late ’70s, Ferrari-Carano has grown to more than 1,900 certified sustainably farmed vineyard acres in six appellations.
Wine Tasting Daily – No appointment needed – At the winery, visitors may taste classic and limited release wines in the Villa Fiore Wine Shop, in the Enoteca located in the underground cellar, or on Il Terrazzo, the outdoor terrace overlooking the vineyards. Relax on the terrace with table service on Saturdays and Sundays, weather permitting. Sip a glass of wine while basking in the Sonoma County sunshine, as the winery now offers wines by the glass or by the bottle for your enjoyment.
Free Daily Winery Tour – If you’d like an in-depth look at Ferrari-Carano, reserve your spot for the free winery tour. Hosted by friendly and knowledgeable staff, you will stroll through the gardens, see vineyards up close, perhaps catch one of the winemaking team or cellar crew hard at work, view Don and Rhonda Carano’s personal wine cellar, and visit the Enoteca and Villa Fiore tasting rooms. You will hear about Ferrari-Carano’s history – how Don and Rhonda first came to Sonoma County on a wine buying trip and fell in love with the area. After the tour, you are invited to taste wines at the Classic Wine Bar or in the Enoteca. Winery tours are available daily, 10 a.m., by appointment. To schedule your tour, call (707) 433-6700 or 1-800-831-0381 or email tourinformation@ferrari-carano.com.
Private Tastings – Each tasting, hosted in the PreVail Room, is designed to highlight the many nuances of wine in a fun and informative way and include Matchmaker (a wine and food pairing), Chardonnay Lovers, The King of Reds, The PreVail Tasting and Scentiments, to name a few. Private Tastings range in price from $20 to $35, and groups of up to eight are welcome.
