Wine Tasting in
Anderson Valley California

This site serves the communities of

Yorkville Boonville Philo Navarro

Anderson Valley is one of the best grape growing areas in California. What was once large parcels of land supporting cattle and sheep are now being developed into vineyards. As you pass along highway 128 you will see new and old vineyards in the valley and on the hills. There are just as many tucked behind the hills out of site. Many of these grapes are sold to wineries outside of the valley to enhance that winery's product.

There are 16 wineries in the area, seven of which have free daily tasting and two which serve superior champagne for a tasting fee of $3 per person. All of the tasting rooms have entrances along highway 128.

You will pass through three appellations as you travel through the area. Traveling west on Hwy 128 you will enter the "Yorkville Highlands" as you cross into Mendocino County at mile marker 50. At mile marker 33.89 you will enter the "Anderson Valley" appellation. The Mendocino Ridge appellation is on the ridge tops along both sides of highway 128. The difference is elevation and soil types. Yorkville is at 945 feet and the valley floor at Boonville at only 375 feet. The higher elevation of Yorkvillle area produces a significantly different quality grape than the valley floor. There are three wineries in this Yorkville appellation that offers tastings they areYorkville Cellars, Maple Creek Vineyards and Meyer Family Winery.
