Sonoma Valley

September Crush
The Wine Country harvest brings a burst of activity to Sonoma Valley, our golden “Valley of the Moon.” Under autumn moonlight, winery crews often work in cool night air to bring in grapes for the crush. Come visit us and stay up late (you can sleep late, too.) Because when the job is done, we party for three days!
