MacRostie Winery Estate House

Ready to sit in another beautiful environment with amazing wines? You are in the right place. Less of a tour through the vineyards but more focused on the tasting experience itself. Our host Bri, was amazing. She seemed to love her job and explained everything to us. The wines were delicious and we couldn’t resist to buy.

My wife and I were members here before Covid. We decided it was time to revisit here for a tasting. We had a wonderful experience(as expected) and decided to rejoin the wine club. Their Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs are fantastic and the setting is exquisite. If you are seeking a lovely wine-tasting experience with super friendly and knowledgeable staff, I highly recommend MacRostie Winery.

Better call Sol! My wife picked MacRostie from a reel she saw online and we figured, why not, let's give it a shot. Just the view driving into the property was amazing, truly what you think of when you think "let's go to a Sonoma winery". We were greeted immediately and given a glass of wine, the employees were super friendly and welcoming. They said since it was a slower day we could pick anywhere to sit and I said "give us the best view", and man, they did not disappoint. Our wine tasting host for the afternoon was Sol, and man, I could not have imagined a better host if I had tried. He was friendly, chatty and extremely knowledgeable. As someone who never has really appreciated wine, Sol went out of his way to help me understand what I was drinking and tailored our tasting to the things I was enjoying. I really can't say enough about how perfect of a tasting it was. After our trip was over my wife and I reflected on our favorite parts and both of us agreed, MacRostie had the best tasting experience, both from the view, the host and the delicious wine. If you're on the fence, take the word of someone who doesn't drink wine, this place is amazing.

We come every few months to pick up my favorite Chardonnay in the world. The views are incredible and the beautiful tasting room and decks are dog friendly.

Visted in May 2024. Experience amazing and wine was excellent. Wish we could get in Arkansas. Sol was amazing and might have slipped us a couple extra tastings. Definitely recommend.

Absolutely stunning grounds and the wine was phenomenal. This is very high on my list of tasting experiences here in Sonoma County. Saul was really knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond making sure we were comfortable and having a fantastic visit. A top notch place for wine tasting, I have no complaints! We will definitely come here again.

Beautiful winery, very peaceful. They make the best chardonnays and one of my favorite roses.

Friendly staff and great wines~ 10 out of 10 experience. We went for the evening and they had food and live music!

Unbeatable views while sipping and sampling top 5% world wines. Bri was an excellent Ambassador!! Wonderful slice of Healdsburg.

Absolutely wonderful experience at MacRosite! We celebrated my mom's birthday there this weekend and felt so special- the grounds were stunning, and we loved the modern architecture. The lovely man pouring our wine (Mark) was knowledge and fun- and made great recommendations for the rest of our trip. We absolutely loved the wine and ended purchasing a case- the winery specializes In Pinot and chardonnay which I know can be polarizing, but seriously the chardonnay was SO GOOD and we end up buying some to bring home.. Don't skip this winery- the view is great, people are wonderful, and the Wine is awesome!

If vibes are what you're looking for, look no further. This place has such an amazing patio and grounds. The view from the patio is amazing and literally the view goes on for miles. The service and the staff is also just so top-notch. My friend and I were the last group there and as we were purchasing our bottles at the main counter, the staff was doing all of their closing tasks: putting bottles away, counting money, gather receipts, etc. and we just had the best time talking to them about anything and everything. We laughed so much. In terms of wine, I will say that MacRostie probably is in the top 40th percentile for me. But to be fair, Sonoma and Napa's wines are really just that good. Also, MacRostie really excels in their whites and roses and I am admittedly very much a full-bodied, complex red wine drinker so I wouldn't really use my percentile ranking as an indicator of whether you will like their wines or not. In fact, I know you'll love their wines because I honestly did too. I can't wait to go back!

Wow!!! One of the best winery patios to enjoy on a sunny day! The tasting cost isn't crazy expensive, and their wines are pretty tasty! Very friendly staff here! When you first come in they welcome you with a Sauvignon Blanc which is quite tasty! We really enjoy the Pinot noirs here - and bought one home with us!

The scenery is breathtaking. We sat outside to enjoy our wine tasting. Our sommelier, Heather, was very knowledgeable and helped make our experience memorable. This winery is best known for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. My absolute favorite was the Thale's Pinot Noir. Excellent choice.

Came for the wine tasting and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They ask questions to bring out wines that best suit your taste.

Came here not expecting too much and left with a case of Pinot! Macrostie is a beautiful property that is great for taking pictures. They specialize in Chardonnay and Pinot, neither of which are my usual favorites. However tasting the Pinots was a great experience. I especially liked the Day Ranch and Fiddlestix (off menu) Pinots which we bought plenty of. Would definitely go back if I was in the area.

MacRostie is a well-known and respected winemaker in the Sonoma County area, as I've come to learn. The estate house is out in the country, southwest of Healdsburg. It's a gorgeous venue: contemporary design, beautiful landscaping, and great views. The signature experience is a lot of fun. You get samples of the wines, along with an explanation of how they are made and what vineyards the grapes come from and therefore how that changes the flavor profile. The wine ambassadors seem like a really welcoming crew and are open to answer questions, take photos, and joke around. I imagine they are happy to customize the tasting to your preferences as much as they are able. Details to know about the signature experience: -6 people maximum -Lasts about 1-1.5 hours -$35 per person -Reservations are required -Dogs on leash welcome -Complimentary drinks for the designated drivers, rideshare pickups aren't reliable (Full disclosure, my mom knows some of the staff at the winery so I think we were treated extra well. And I didn't pay for anything at this visit, my mom did!) I went home with a couple bottles: the blanc de noirs, nightwing vineyard, and I think one or two more that I am forgetting. I am looking forward to enjoying them and because of the guided experience I feel confident pairing them with food and vibes.

First was greeted with a welcome glass of rosé. The property is beautiful, lots of places to take pictures or to just soak in the views. We did a tasting of two Chardonnays and two Pino noirs. The tasting host did a good job balancing, educating us on the wine he was pouring (since it was our first time) and letting us chitchat amongst our group. We were the last ones of the day and they let us take our time while we wrapped up which I much appreciated! Will be back again!

I stumbled across MacRostie on yelp while planning a weekend trip in the Healdsburg area. Online pictures of the estate house drew me in and WOW it's even more stunning in person! The estate is gorgeous and the view of their property while tasting on the outdoor patio was perfection. A huge shout out to our sommelier Season! She made our first experience so fun and enjoyable. She really went out of her way to way to understand what type of wines we like and she customized our tastings around what we enjoy. I can't recommend MacRostie enough! We went home with their Rosé of Pinot Noir and a Chardonnay. I'm already planning my next trip back!!

Wow! MacCrostie is one of the most beautiful wineries in Sonoma County! Went recently for the first time with a friend who's a member. The architecture of the main building is stunning inside and out. We appreciated sitting outside overlooking the rolling hills of vineyards in their pre-harvest splendor! We tasted our way through 5 or so of their cool-climate Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs, and added a splash of the red blend and Zin. Enjoyed everything but our favorites were: 2020 Day Ranch Pinot Noir and 2021 Clockwise Zinfandel We took home two bottles of each, wish we bought more! Now we have an excuse to go back! MacCrostie allows friendly dogs and we were fortunate to overlap with someone who brought rescue dogs. Puppies and Pinot! Day made!!!

TLDR: you are paying for the lovely ambiance and snacks; the wine tastings didn't stand out to us wine amateur drinkers. I made a reservation for 4 through tock for Heidi's Harvest Picks. I emailed to notify that one person from my party was our designated driver and wouldn't be drinking, and someone was very responsive in writing back to refund me for paying for 4 when it should have been for 3. The experience itself was relaxing. The space is beautiful and we were seated inside with a view of the vineyard. The snacks were delicious and we learned some history about the business. As wine amateurs, we thought the white wines were decent but had trouble distinguishing the difference in two of the red wines. The staff was very kind in providing a couple extras for us, such as snack refills and a small pour for our DD, and that is always a nice touch! I would definitely come back again on a nice warm day to enjoy the space and relax!

Came here last weekend with a reservation! We were given the option of indoor or outdoor seating but we chose inside and were glad we did as we had a perfect window view. The wines here were delish and for a $35/tasting we thought the portions were generous. Michael was our wine ambassador and he was great - we greatly appreciated his enthusiasm and humor and made our experience at MacRostie that much more enjoyable! We also put on our reservation that we were celebrating an anniversary and they were so kind as to decorate our glasses with a happy announcement message!

Absolutely stunning!! The property and tasting area are so serene! From the moment we arrived we were handed a glass of sparkling wine as we were taken to our table. Children are allowed, but we were the only table who had children the afternoon we went. Unfortunately, they don't allow outside food but they do offer a handful of charcuterie type items to add to your tasting. The wine was delicious! We bought 3 bottles, one from their library reserve which wasn't part of the tasting but they did allow us to taste. Highly recommend and plan to go back!

Gorgeous winery and great Chardonnay and Pinot - so it's like Burgundy? Except the wine tasted a little more warmer climate? Clearly I had a great time drinking and forgot what we learned. Enjoyed the strawberry juicy Pinot that are also balanced and subtle. Fun touch on the glass for birthday "week" trip.

The view is great, the building and the architecture are spectacular, service was awesome but I personallt just didn't enjoy their tasting so much. It might have been the fact that I had really spectacular wines just an hr earlier to my visit there or just might have been an off day. Might need to give them a second try again in the future.

The gentleman with the two Japanese sleeves was amazing. I like how his shirt was unbuttoned maybe TWO buttons lower than your everyday gent. He was very cool. We got 3 bottles in the end. We tasted 9 wines instead of 5! My head hurts right now writing this review. He was a great guy. I'm writing this review while waiting for the Paella that he told us not to get...*fingers crossed.

Wow. Such an amazing Bay Area business that feels great to support. The staff are super friendly, the ambiance is chill and beautiful and cozy, and the wine is really good. We were so happy with the wines and the service that we joined the wine club! Plus, the view from their tasting room is top notch. Very scenic and peaceful. What more can you ask for? After visiting the MacRostie booth at the Tiburon Wine Festival and having their Sauvignon Blanc, I had to visit in person (and use my free tasting coupon). MacRostie did not disappoint. We were welcomed by the hostess, who poured us a glass of amazing Blanc de Noirs sparkling wine. It was delicious, and I regret not grabbing a bottle to take home that day. We were seated in their outdoor tasting room section, at a table overlooking the vineyards of the area and the mountains of Sonoma and Napa. It was picturesque and really breathtaking, especially given that it was a nice sunny day in December when we went! We enjoyed the Chardonnay & Pinot Noir tasting, as those are the most commonly produced wines. The other option was reds only tasting, which included mostly pinots and a blend. Anyway, my favorites from the combo tasting were the Dutch Valley Chardonnay and the Anderson Valley Pinot (which we took home with us at 15% off because we joined the wine club). I also really enjoyed The Loch, a special reserve "library" wine generally only available to members (which comes with a special story about Steve MacRostie that I won't spoil). There were only 2 barrels of that wine made, so it was special. We also had the Clockwise red cab, which my husband really liked, and our server Ronaldo was gracious enough to let me try the Sauvignon Blanc (which we also bought and took home). We were also amazed at how friendly and knowledgeable and welcoming and warm the staff were. From the second we arrived and were poured that glass of sparkling wine, through the moment we left, everyone spent time chatting with us, sharing information about the winery and the winemakers (and themselves), and really making the experience great overall. Also, I'm excited for the wine pick up parties and that we get to bring friends to come up and do tastings next time we visit! Highly recommend!

This was such a vibe! On the day we went, it was a little rainy which made everything cozy. We sat outside with heaters and blankets, and were not cold at all. They're super informative about their wines. Overall a great time for the 6 of us!

MacRostie Winery Estate House is an incredible experience that I highly recommend and a great stop in the Russian River Valley. Advise having a reservation ahead of time (same day or day before should be fine), but we were able to be accommodated as walk in guests. Very much appreciated their gracious attitude despite our lack of reservation. Parking is fairly plentiful. The estate house is stunning. The design of the house is fabulous but nothing beats the view. 360 degree view of majestic rolling vineyard hills throughout the Russian River Valley. Brianna (Bri) was an absolute delight as our wine/experience ambassador. She made our visit truly special and her passion for what she does shines through. We learned a lot about wines with their comparison tasting approach with nice discussions about the wines before and after the tasting. Definitely a place we will be return specifically for in the future.

OK this place is beautiful period. The exterior on either side you can sit under an umbrella and just take in the full wine country of Healdsburg. It is wonderful. The greeters on the weekend are at the ready with a nice glass of rose as you walk up, and they get you checked in and ready to go. This place can get crowded especially on the weekend so I would recommend a reservation. You can sit indoor or outdoor - which both are beautiful but outside is the way to go. There is light music playing which is lovely. We were hosted by Sal who was lovely and chill and nice to our dog. Oh and they are completely dog friendly. They offer treats and a water dish for anyone bringing their fur baby. Ours is a big puppy and they are allowed in or out which is awesome. The wines - we liked some of them. Everyone's pallet is different for us we like wines at other places better but they have a wide selection of pinot noirs, chards and rose. We did buy some of the chard and pinot and their Cab which they only make one right now or sell one, but it was delicious in my opinion. Dog friendly (completely no restriction), beautiful with stunning views, nice build, calm cool people... I mean it is great - In my opinion and for my pallet there are better wines but this place is hard to beat!

What a beautiful winery with the friendliest wine educators. We had a reservation for a basic tasting and even though it was raining slightly, the tasting room was so warm and cozy. Highly recommend for anyone making a visit to Healdsburg/Sonoma

Wonderful view from porch tasting area! Although busy during our visit, there was ample room for all, not feeling crowded or rushed. Heather, our hostess, was excellent and very informative with the details of all the wines we tasted. A great experience! Highly recommended!

This is a really beautiful winery with nice Chardonnays and Pinots. It's not super touristy so you can get lucky with the last minute reservations (probably would be the first thing in the morning at 10 am) but I would still suggest making a reservation ahead of time. They greet you with a glass of delicious rose upon arrival so it's always a good start. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly and they really care about your experience. The grounds are breathtaking, the building is very modern and has a such a nice ambiance. I highly recommend checking it out while exploring CA wine country.

A beautiful winery nested within healdsburg. As you drive up the long driveway you are greeted with the vineyards and the winery's modern tasting room! As you enter the winery grounds, the host greeted us with a glass of rose! We were then seated on the patio for our tasting. The winery has multiple patios and indoor spaces! We had a wonderful host, who had great knowledge of the area and the wines. He took the opportunity to learn about us and preferences which was a nice change! The winery features chardonnays and Pinots. They also had a couple cabs while visiting. Worth a stop in! Especially if you would to escape the tourist!

Came here on a whim after I was met with a 3 hour wait to get into Russian River Brewing (curse you Pliny The Younger release :) ). We just wanted to kill time, so I Yelped this place and drove up based on the pictures alone. This is a STUNNING vineyard even in the off-season when the vines have no leaves. So the Russian River AVA is known for their pinots and chardonnays. Neither my wife nor I are fans of white wine...this did nothing to change our minds. Truth be told I'm not a huge pinot guy either while my wife likes them well enough. We both gravitate to bigger bolder blends and cabs. So when I found that's all they really had, I didn't expect much. But we had a lovely view, and our somm took great care of us giving us detailed explanations of each wine we tried. MacRostie completely changed my perception of pinot noir. Turns out I just really hadn't had a good one yet. These were all very good, and the Day Ranch pinot was excellent! We bought 3 bottles.

My aunt and I were visiting a neighboring winery and wanted to take a little drive and possibly get in one more tasting. We saw MacRostie from the road and decided to try and get a walk in reservation. We were greeted with a taste of one of their wines while the hostess was checking on availability. Luckily, they had space and an ambassador available. We were seated on the balcony with a gorgeous view of the surrounding vineyards and the sounds of music playing quietly in the background (thumbs up on the music selection!). A lot of the wine educators we had, while friendly and knowledgeable, were more serious and subdued. Enter Season. Girl came in like a wrecking ball with a taste of their new release, Blanc de Blancs. She was friendly and personable. You can tell that Season loves what she does. She knows her stuff, yet she talks about the wines in a very approachable way. Season started by bringing a couple of MacRostie"s Chardonnays, including what she called a "porch pounder" that we enjoyed so much that we brought home 2 bottles. She asked us to taste them and tell her what we liked about them so that she could taylor the tasting more to our likes. She went off script and brought out a couple wines not listed on the menu that she thought we would like. We then moved onto the Pinot Noirs. She described the different regions they came from as well as what to look for as we tasted them. Again, she listened to what we liked and brought out wines more suited to our tastes. She also gave us some new tasting pointers. I have to say that between the relaxed vibe, the gorgeous views, the wonderful wines, and our awesome ambassador, this was the most fun I've had during a tasting. Their tasting fee, which is super reasonable, is waived when you buy 3 bottles. So we bought 6. We are already planning our next trip in the spring. We will check out some new spots, but we will definitely return to MacRostie and hopefully another tasting with Season.

Enjoyable spot to taste in Healdsburg specializing in lighter tasting Sonoma Coast varietals: rose, Chardonnay and Pinot. One of the prettier settings for a special, memorable tasting in the area, sitting on the patio or inside the modern, beautiful tasting room, seated and looking out on the winery.

Seriously, it is all about the wine! And because of that, I ALWAYS find myself back at MacRostie Winery every visit to Sonoma County (Even though there are over 425 wineries in SC and maybe 426 by the time I finish this review:)!). That old saying about drink what you like and not what the critics tell you to like! Well I hella like all of Steven MacRostie's wines! And guess what...so do the critics. MacRostie's reputation is of one of California's most revered producers of cool-climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. My personal favorites! Many years ago my wine-loving, Santa Cruz, sister with a "tasting" palette much more developed than mine introduced me to MacRostie Winery. I have been a big fan ever since. I clearly remember my first visit. Driving up the hill to the winery over looking those beautiful vineyards and mountains literally took my breath away. And it still does! One of those picture postcard views. Our tasting adventure began before we even reached the doors of the Winery! A friendly "greeter" welcomes you with a glass of wine. Definitely a new and exciting way to begin your introduction to the MacRostie "wine-tasting experience. At least it was for me. An impressive customer- toast tradition that continues today! MacRostie without doubt excels in the wine tasting experience. I am spoiled forever by the classy and most relaxed atmosphere of it all! You are guided through your tasting by a winery "Ambassador". While each ambassador is knowledgeable, interesting and delightful, I have come to have my favorite. Corey! Thank you Corey for absolutely elevating my entire wine tasting experience! I love your passion! There even may be a picture of him included:)! Last December I was visiting Carmel and doing what else...like duh...wine tasting:)! I was beyond thrilled to meet Steve MacRostie and his lovely wife, Thale, in a local wine tasting bar. Unpretentious, low key, and fun, fun people! An unexpected pleasure I will always treasure! And yes I did get a selfie with him!:) Before ending this review, I must give a shout out to the nicest, sweetest and kindest staff member, Leslie! Calling and happening to reach her for last minute tasting reservations a few months ago was my lucky day! Thank you Leslie for going above and beyond for me. And meeting you in person was the icing on the cake! Hope to see you real soon! Sipping an enjoyable glass of wine in a lovely and picturesque venue is the ultimate pleasure for a lover or connoisseur of wine for sure! If you are in the Healdsburg neighborhood, please take the opportunity to stop. Like me, I am sure you will always remember your "MacRostie" wine tasting experience! Cheers!

Thank you for a wonderful experience. The wines are fantastic. Our wine sommelier was Bri and her knowledge and energy was top notch! Thanks Bri for making our visit so special.

An update to my review from last year. Once again our experience at MacRostie was excellent. As wine club members we made an advanced reservation requesting the indoor sofa. We knew it was going to be a hot day so wanted to be inside in the air conditioning. Upon arrival we were greeted with a glass of rose and led inside. Mark poured for us and he was knowledgeable, professional and friendly. The wines are solid. You can't go wrong with any of their offerings. I think this winery is one of the best - it's not pretentious but has an understated elegance about it (both the grounds/architecture and the wines).

Had a wonderful day with my Mom in wine country. We had an amazing time visiting MacRostie. The wine was superb, the service was above outstanding. Shout out to S'ra who served us, she made our experience memorable, fun and very educational. If you are looking for a great tasting experience in Heidsberg, MacRostie is a MUST! Ask for S'ra, she is absolutely amazing, very personable, professional, attentive and made us feel right at home.

The Mrs. and I had a tasting at MacRostie on Tuesday. This was our second and last winery of the day. Our tasting was scheduled for 2:30. At this point it was already 93 and to me one of the worst things in the world is wine tasting in hot weather. I felt bad for the hostess who was sitting outside to greet people. Noticing our lack of enthusiasm for the heat, the hostess sat us at a table inside that had pretty incredible view of the surrounding vineyards. Season, yes, that is her name, arrived to pour for us. Before our session began, Season noticed that my daughter was reading Manga. They had a brief discussion then Season told her she could sit on the couch rather than at the table with us. MacRostie only has two varietals. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Season enthusiastically explained each wine to us. Frankly, she is the kind of person you want pouring for you. She wasn't stuffy and explained things using terms the average wino would understand. Our tasting began at 2:30 and we ended up leaving a little over two hours later. If you want to go wine tasting in the Sonoma area, I would suggest doing so during the week. The wineries aren't as crowded and staff has more time to interact with you. If you go to MacRostie, ask for Season.

Season was the most amazing wine tasting guide. Excellent description and guiding. Customized our tastes and preferences, gave suggestions for lunch downtown Healdsburg. All around great experience. Thank you!!

Came here for my birthday weekend with the family! Our sommelier Sharon was very knowledgeable and entertaining! Wines we tried were all amazing and our tasting came with an incredible charcuterie box.

Last Tuesday, I had the pleasure of visiting MacRostie Winery, a true gem nestled in the heart of the Russian River Valley. I can't stress enough how much of a must-visit this place is! I was accompanied by a new friend from Canada, and from the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the beautiful property and its surroundings. Our host, Season, made our visit truly exceptional. Her knowledge of winemaking and approach to each vineyard's unique character added a fascinating dimension to the tasting experience. Even for seasoned wine enthusiasts, Season's wealth of information was a delight to absorb and enjoy. We were both blown away by the exceptional quality and taste of the wines. I took home the 2021 Nightwing Vineyard Pinot Noir as it stood out with its structured profile, light tannins, and delightful red fruit notes. I'm grateful for the wonderful experience we had at MacRostie Winery, and I can't wait to return for more of these lovely wines. Oh and my new friend couldn't help but express how this winery visit had truly become her absolute favorite. Thank you, MacRostie Winery AND Season, for an unforgettable time!

I've been coming to MacRostie for a few years now and the experience only gets better. You get the ambience, views and phenomenal wine that you expect from a top tier winery but the vibes and service feels like a casual experience you receive from a mom and pop restaurant. Charcuterie box was tasty and our server Corey was just a delight to talk to.

There are places that are not going to be on the radar of many wine aficionados, in wine encyclopedias or be featured for their craft. MacRosie is one of those places. In wine world, despite their age, they are still very much an up and coming winery. They hardly grow any of their own grapes, instead heavily relying on grapes from Sonoma's legendary families. However, MacRostie has something else that it gets very, very right. The ambiance, the architecture and the surroundings amongst which this winery is created is perhaps one of the most beautiful in Sonoma County. Stunning minimalism and attention to every detail of winery's design creates an atmosphere where you want to spend hours there. The views are truly unparalleled, with a mixture of terrains and tables carefully placed to share the maximum panoramic perspective. It feels like a place that brings it's surroundings within itself. The people working here are fun, knowledgeable and actually passionate about wine, which to my surprise, is a pretty rare thing in California wine country. In many wineries, the staff that an average guest interacts with are quite clueless about wine, it's production, soil and terroir. This was a huge differentiator and our server/somm, Jack, was spectacular. To revisit the wine, it's quite excellent. Wildcat Mountain Pinot noir was gorgeous, so was The Key Chardonnay. It might not have the history yet and the rapport of other wineries, but these are good wines. More importantly, MacRostie is a stunning winery to visit. I say more importantly because you can have an excellent bottle of wine in many settings from your favorite producer, but few wineries will leave this sort of lasting impression.

We saw MacRostie from the road on our way to a tasting and thought it was the most beautiful tasting room we had ever seen! We stopped by without a reservation hoping to get a glass or a tasting and we had the best time. S'rah was absolutely amazing and made our visit so special! They taught us so much about different AVAs and their impact on the wine we were tasting. Truly such a memorable, educational, and fun experience we will never forget!

Visited here many times with friends and visitors to Wine Country (many international). It is never short of outstanding. Consistently first class. The scenery and architecture is superb- classy, timeless and such great energy. I could spend all day there! The wines are light, balanced and true to the varietals. We always leave with several cases. I love their branding. The sommeliers are super knowledgeable and helpful- I learn something new every time I go there. It is also very dog friendly and has a sophisticated yet relaxed atmosphere. I can't congratulate the Macrostie team enough- great people, facilities and wines- bravo!!!

One of the best wine tasting experiences I've ever had! My boyfriend and I did a tasting at MacRostie last Friday morning and had a wonderful experience. We were sold from the greeting toast Chardonnay! The view was incredible and Andy modified our tasting to include the type of wines that we like. He was knowledgeable, fun, put up with all my questions, and completely made our experience. We just had to sign up for the membership!! Definitely will be back.

We had a fantastic time here on a Friday afternoon for wine tasting. The wines were stellar and Season (one of their very friendly employees) was amazing, taking us on a journey, explaining the behind the scenes work that goes into the wine, and playing around to figure out our 3 different wine palates. Season made the day so fun! The views are beautiful and I wanted to buy all the bottles, will definitely be coming back here and look out for their wines on the market.

Saul was our wine "ambassador" on a Sunday Father's Day! SAUL paid close attention to our multiple questions & requests and was very enthusiastic and exceptionally Knowledgable about MacRostie wines & the unique characteristics of all of the various grapes from the multiple vineyards MacRostie harvests from. What a great session we had -- loads of fun-- we leaned so much . AGAIN our out of town guests were blown away at the attentiveness of Saul to our requests & questions !!! Hope we can request him for next time! Barbara Hassid

Beautiful winery, excellent service and delicious wine. I love their Chardonnay! Looking forward to my next visit.

This is a very late review but I just had to. By far one of the best experiences I had , I even got a membership!! I frequent the valleys and randomly just drop by different estates. This time, I chose MacRostie (not my first time though) coz I wanted to impress a friend. It did not disappoint. Picture Perfect time, October , perfect weather , and luckily we were attended by Syrah , the estates lead wine ambassador who like the grape is bold and full bodied in character ( not the spelling I'm sure , but she's hard to forget ) The more - than - an hour tasting (including the wait) was worth it with the background like a painting. This estate is well staffed and the wines, from Chardonnay to Pinot noir to CabSauv filled my palate , salivating for more. Gosh, we even got a candle sold at the lobby! This time, I got to understand that screwcapped bottles are not for cheap wines only. It's even better than corks coz it's more airtight and less prone to flaws. And of course the different kinds and levels of screw caps.. (thanks to Syrah(from Australia ) Anyway, I highly recommend macrostie wines, (the loch Pinot noir my favorite now) and by all means pls visit this estate when you're in Healdsburg Sonoma.

My family and I visited for a Birthday celebration a few days ago and was blown away!!! Our experience with Seasons (wine tasting host) was truly incredible. She was personal, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and made myself and my family feel so special. On top of Seasons, the wine was absolutely amazing we bought some to take home and left with a membership. My mother in law kept saying this was the best winery she's ever been to. I definitely recommend MacRostie, and Season.

When visiting the wine country, don't miss out! Beautiful views, vibes & vino! From the personalized greeting to a knowledgeable staff and fabulous tasting experience.... Just go already!

Wines - delicious Ambiance - relaxing and gorgeous Service - awesome We were greeted with sparkling rose' ... my fave! We will definitely return. It was our first time here and an absolutely amazing experience!

Apparently we don't look like the right people to taste their wine. They were very rude when we walked in and kept mentioning the tasting fee after we agreed. Finally they said they didn't have the staff to accommodate more people that day. Not worth the trip
