Dehlinger Winery

Located in the Russian River Valley AVA of Sonoma County, Dehlinger Winery is widely recognized as an early pioneer of planting Pinot Noir and Syrah. The estate relies on its 55 acres of certified sustainable vineyards to produce these flagship varietals. Their highly sought-after wines consistently receive critical acclaim for their rich complexity.

Tom Dehlinger founded the family-owned estate in 1975 in the Russian River Valley of Sonoma County, California. At that time, the region was not yet recognized as the premier viticultural area it is today. Dehlinger was among the first to identify the region's massive potential for cool-climate varietals.

Dehlinger Winery is generally open to the public by appointment only, offering intimate tastings at their estate in Sonoma County. The tasting experiences often feature their library vintages and limited-production, estate-grown wines. Due to the high demand and limited production, scheduling a reservation well in advance is highly recommended.

The winery remains a family-owned operation, currently managed by Tom Dehlinger's daughter, Eva Dehlinger. After Tom established the winery in 1975, Eva took over the winemaking responsibilities to continue her father's legacy. The estate continues to prioritize sustainable farming practices across its 55 acres of land.
