Twomey is one of the larger wineries, part of the Silver Oak with multiple tasting rooms throughout Napa and Sonoma. Tasting room in Anderson Valley focuses more on Pinot and have a more affordable tasting option compared to ones in Napa. We stopped by on a whim on our way to Mendocino and so glad we did. The ground is adorable with tasting area filled with flowers and nice view of the vineyard. We ended up purchasing a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc and one of their older vintage Merlot (2013) and to our surprise got two of their wine glasses as a gift!

If you love a winery and if the winery is somehow connected to another, you definitely want to visit. Reverie is a “sister winery” to Aonair and you definitely get the same high-quality experience, hospitality, view, and wine. You feel like you are visiting your friend’s family home to drink great wine and have a great time. There’s an inviting patio area to taste and also another tasting area up on the hills with amazing view. Loved their Cab Franc!

I added Rangeland to our itinerary because we needed a place for lunch and saw that they serve grass-fed burgers on weekends. It was the best choice ever! Not only the burger was amazing, they have great wines especially for the price (true Paso prices compared to Napa 😂), and the ground was beautiful. I can’t recommend it enough even if you are not into burgers.

Law Estate

  • Main varietals: Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre

  • Tasting fee: $40 to taste, 2 fees waived with 6 bottle purchase

  • Average wine rating on Vivino: 4.4

Multiple people recommended Law Estate so it was one of the first on our itinerary when we booked a weekend trip to Paso. Estate is beautiful and each party is hosted by a dedicated host. While it’s considered small, various tasting areas did feel like a more established winery. Good stop for a small group as they have a glass-enclosed room that felt very private!
