Petrali Wines

During a vacation to northern California in the fall of 1994, we spent a week in Sonoma and Napa counties riding bikes and tasting wine. After that, we knew we wanted to come back and we moved to San Francisco in 1995. Finally in 2001 we found our own little spot on the east side of the town of Sonoma. While the steep hill on which our property sits can be inconvenient after walking to town for ice cream, its rocky soil and protected valley turns out fabulous Syrah grapes. In short, it’s the perfect location for what we wanted…a small, organic, family winery where the wines are made with great care.
