Located in the San Francisco Bay area in southeastern Sonoma County is the Valley considered the birthplace of the California wine industry. The Sonoma Valley runs from Santa Rosa in the north to the San Pablo Bay in the south. Formed between the Mayacamas Mountains and Sonoma Mountains, Sonoma Valley was home to the earliest California Vineyards which survived both the phylloxera epidemic of the 1870s and the effects of 20th century prohibition.
Today along with being the home to over 100 wineries, The Valley plays host to events year-round. Along with historic wineries Sonoma Valley encompasses many other historic sites including the Jack London State Historic Park which preserves the land that Jack London called home. Visiting the Sonoma Valley includes hot springs resorts, historical buildings, and the history of the settlement of California by the missionaries.
The vineyards of the Sonoma Valley are as varied as the tastes of its wine. Award winning wines from Sonoma are made in wineries that include castles, Mediterranean influenced villas, garden chateaus and modern lounges. Grand estates, quaint wine cellars and subterranean caves are all a part of the winery tour experience in Sonoma Valley.
A proper tour of the Sonoma Valley begins on the Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley. Whether you are a seasoned wine enthusiast, a novice, a sommelier or a history buff the Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley offers an informative overview of the valley during a fun, friendly, relaxing, care free day.
The Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley is a six-hour adventure aboard a replica California cable car. Your hand-built cable car is based on the original blueprints from the San Francisco cable cars that were in operation from the 1890s through the 1930s. It is an all wooden carriage detailed right down to the brass bell. The modern conveniences of the day have been added including a state-of-the-art sound system and PA, along with connections for iPod and iPhone. The Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley is an open-air cable car that lets you experience a panoramic view as you visit four of the world class wineries of The Valley.
Your conductor on the guided Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley will explain the history, legacies, and folklore as you travel the green valley from vineyard to vineyard. The Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley is a group friendly event that encourages making new friends along the way.
The day on the Wine Trolley includes a catered picnic lunch prepared by the Girl & the Fig Restaurant, noted for their country French cuisine, a visit to four selected wineries for a taste of the treasures of Sonoma and a day of knowledgeable adventure. The Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley departs from Sonoma Plaza at 10:30 AM and returns at 4:30 PM. You must be 21 years old to purchase a ticket for the exclusive wine tasting adventures aboard the Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley.
Along with the historical education, laughs and priceless views the Trolley tour visits four wineries. Winery visits on the tour vary because of seasonal and special events happening on certain days, the tour will always include a visit to four premium wineries for a semi-private tasting. Winery tasting fees are separate, ranging from $20-$30 per vineyard.
Wineries are selected for daily tours from the list of twelve regularly visited by the tour conductors of the Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley. The selected wineries are chosen to provide visitors with a general overview of the Sonoma Valley Wine experience. Each of the chosen wineries offer a unique vineyard property and premium vintages. The list includes:
Ravenswood Winery - Buena Vista Winery - Imagery Winery - Mayo Family Winery - Madrone Estate Winery - Paradise Ridge - Larson Winery - Gloria Ferrar – Jacuzzi - Valley of The Moon - VJB Winery - BR Cohen

Ginger Martin Presents | 1301 Bella Oaks | Rutherford
The exterior of the main house’s rugged fieldstone and light gray stucco walls, 10’ wide veranda, and weathered metal roof belie a warm, welcoming Old-World charm with a relaxed feel. The distinctive use of natural elements, deliberate lines, and soft faded colors creates an elegant and comfortable home that offers commanding views of the surrounding foothills and vineyards from nearly every room.
The interior favors calm, light grays, and warm antique whites. Painted shiplap, subway tile, industrial lighting, rich wood and venerable iron details tie together the combination of styles that embodies this picturesque historical narrative. The banister to the ground level floor and to the third-floor suite was custom made by Napa Valley ironmonger, Joe Lafarge, who painstakingly created a design inspired by a home in Italy. Nearly every element of this bespoke home is custom made. The functional style features numerous built-ins, all crafted by one of California’s most talented woodworkers, Garth Miller.
This stately French Country Farmhouse was designed by famed Napa Valley architect Howard Backen and was completely rebuilt in 2006, and recently renovated in 2016. Situated in the Cabernet vineyards of Rutherford, the home was designed by renowned style-guru Erin Martin, and photographed by actress-author Diane Keaton in 2010 for her book: House.
From its columned cabana with white-painted ceiling beams and fireplace to its board and batten carriage barn, this versatile compound blends a century of American design into a single transcendent whole. A lush garden surrounds the home with roses, gardenias, hydrangeas, and olive trees, as well as a verdant lawn between the farmhouse, cabana, and barn.
Balancing aesthetics and functionality beautifully, 1301 Bella Oaks offers multiple outdoor entertaining areas, gracious interiors, and practical design elements. A stunning rendition of a timeless classic, the French Farmhouse.
