I quite like Audelssa. The wines are pretty good - their 01 Syrah and 02 Cabernet were excellent and very good QPR. The people are friendly and the views are spectacular.

I like Sebastiani. Good QPR, a lot of different varieties, for the most part done pretty well. I also love the fact that they're so close to the Square and the heart of Sonoma...it's a nice little jaunt to or from lunch.

[oh boy]

Since I'm new I'll ask:

What is QPR - my guess: Quality Price Relationship.........

Works for me. I've always taken it to stand for 'Quality to Price Ratio'.

Could be:
'Queasy Pontif Receptacle'

Isn't this question like asking where's your favorite beach.

There are thousands!
How about favorite DCV winery?

Bella or Unti would be my choices

Kosta Browne and Peay...

Great people

Peay - treacherous thrilling ride to the farm

Martinelli, by far, for their wide variety of truly outstanding wines.


Just one more sip.

Kosta Browne for great Pinot Noir, great people, and the best barrel samples.
