Roadhouse Winery - Healdsburg

Amazing experience! If I could give more stars I would. We stumbled upon this place while wandering around Healdsburg after lunch and were treated to a spectacular tasting afternoon. We were the only people there so we sat inside (lovely and cool, although they have a nice outdoor tasting area too) and one of the owners was pouring and knows SO much about the area in addition the grapes and of course their wine. Very fun music too!

Pinots on the Plaza! I'd previously been to Roadhouse for a tasting before the pandemic and before they expanded their space, and I really enjoyed their Pinots. There's just so much good wine in this town and not enough time! On our recent walk home from dinner on a Saturday we were thrilled to see them still open and offering wines by the glass so we popped in. There was 1 red and 1 white available for $15/glass. We opted for the luscious red, a Leras Vineyard Pinot Noir (I think this is the Pink Label bottle) and it was absolutely delicious! Fun fact: the Papapietro Perry team also makes a Leras Vineyard Pinot. Roadhouse's expanded tasting room space is light and bright with comfortable seating options, cool music-inspired art, vinyl records for playing, and vinyl records for sale! If you like Pinots and want to taste some special ones in town, do pay them a visit.

We visited this place in May 2021 and they had outdoor seating and a wine tasting option for non- members. The tasting costs $30 and does not include any cheese pairings. For vegetarians, the cheese and meat pairing is expensive, as they can't do the meat. It wasn't an interactive experience for learning more about each type of wine, but would have loved that.

Stopped by and got a quick glass of wine while waiting for nearby restaurant reservation. Had their red wine and rose. Cute place and convenient location with limited outdoor seating. Service was friendly and wine was fine. If we had more time perhaps we could've enjoyed it more.

Best pinot in the appellation . If you're in the area it's a must try. Full throated body and incredible boots.
