Welcome to West Wines
Tasting Room activities
This is a great time to experience the wine country. Sit on our patio or in the pavilion and sip your wine enjoying the view. Reservations here. You can also order a cheese platter or lunchbox in advance to go with your tasting. We offer a selfguided walk in the vineyard guided by signs telling you about the yeard in the vineyard.

Wine and Food Affaire
Saturday and Sunday, November 1-2. The 27th annual Wine & Food Affair. Each day, visit an array of 50+ wineries. At West, we'll be pairing our Alix Chardonnay and Opera Cuvée with a decadent Butternut Squash Ravioli accompanied by Brown Butter Sage Cream Sauce from Chef Stephen at Canevari's Catering.
Our tasting room, tucked under a huge oak overlooking our vineyards, is an idyllic place to enjoy a well-aged Cabernet Sauvignon and other fine wines. West Wines is a family winery in Healdsburg's Dry Creek Valley, Sonoma County, established by Katarina Bonde and Bengt Akerlind in 1998. Our winemaking style is rooted in traditional French methods, which enhance the elegance and complexity of flavors from our estate grown grapes. We have two sustainably farmed vineyards, one creek-side on the valley floor and the other 400 feet up on a ridge with beautiful south and west exposure. Read more here.
