Sonoma Coast Art & Wine

Visiting Sonoma County you will be amazed at the world class art & wine. On the Sonoma Coast we have a large community of artists, restaurateurs, Inn keepers, commercial fishing, plus some world class wine.

The Sonoma Coast AVA
It extends from San Pablo Bay to the border with Mendocino County. The appellation is known for its cool climate and high rainfall relative to other parts of Sonoma County. Close to the Pacific, with more than twice the annual rainfall of its inland neighbors, it’s warm enough to ripen wine grapes because most vineyards are above the fog line.

Fort Ross-Seaview AVA

Lingering coastal fog in the valleys below yields the right amount of cool on the vines of Fort Ross-Seaview. The region rises above the fogline to occupy a completely unique ecosystem—one that’s dryer, sunnier and warmer than most. This elevated, “coastal cool” maritime climate is ideal for growing Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. There are also plantings of Pinotage, Roussanne and, further inland, highly acclaimed Syrah, Zinfandel and Cabernet.

The Sonoma Coast and Russian River not only has a vibrant artists colony the landscape inspire other artists. On the website sonomacoastart.com you will see a sample of their work.
