Exactly What We Needed!

By Jennifer T |

We stayed at Gracianna Winery Farm Stay Loft for our 30th wedding anniversary and it was absolutely beautiful! The decor was elegant and the feel was welcoming. The grounds were BEAUTIFUL!! Unfortunately there was a storm the weekend we were there which didn't allow us to do everything we had planned in Healdsburg but we were just as happy staying in and enjoying the comfort of the loft. All of our needs were met - there is nothing negative to say! We loved our stay!

The hosts were welcoming in their communications to us and we will definitely be back after April 1st when the tasting room is open so we can get the full experience!

Gracianna is the best!

By Danny |

The friendliest staff I have ever encountered at a winery. They make you feel as part of the family. Pure class! Oh, did I mention the wine is spectacular!

No contest; it’s a top pick

By FarAway22547708132 |

Discovered by accident when we first noticed the owners’ unique house, the experience wasn’t only welcoming, but each I tasted was seriously above the cutting edge! And no allergic reactions.

Just before COVID era, after purchasing a case at Graciana, and random bottles at two other great finds, I decided to stop at a big name on my way home. A limo of tasters raved about their Chardonnay. I was stunned; it tasted watered down, and frankly, awful, compared to the Chards I just had at Granciana and one other. (I was told it might be IF or when grapes were irrigated). It’s a huge mistake to not try smaller wineries, and really taste differences between vintages and even soil types.

Graciana’s Pinots and Chards hook me, but I always get some Zins , too. Also, consider the book about the ancestral Graciana in WWII Europe.

Gracianna A Great Wine Experience

By CJREE |

The owners are very friendly. The wines are excellent, and the location is great, with nice views of the vineyard. We are from Oregon and plan on visiting annually. We joined the club last year, and can't wait until our next visit!

Gracianna wine tour

By Roger I |

Trini Amador is amazing and went overboard in his winery tour for us. He really took the time to explain his wines and holds great stories.

Fantastic experience on a very nice piece of land and winery. The Gracianna Lasaga Pinot is excellent. I enjoyed the Chardonnay as well.

Grateful

By diane f |

We’ve been members--they won BEST IN SHOW at the competition and they made us feel like we all won! Like we’re part of the family. Beautiful wines, beautiful people , we’re so grateful to be members!

Lovely experience

By kwittleder |

Beautiful property, friendly folks and delicious wines! If you like a low-key, casual experience (my personal favorite), this is the place for you. If you are lucky, one of the family may be around to share stories of the history of the vineyard and the family.

Not interested

By Anya K |

A bad way to start a lovely day. We called this winery in the morning to check if they were ok with only one of us drinking and the were very welcoming. However, when we got there the experience was the opposite.

Handed a tipple of wine and told to wait over there, we were then ignored for 30 minutes, just given an order list to fill in. Over the next 45 mins we were told that the next taster was on its way (but after the first 20mins we realised that they were too busy (with another group who were obviously all drinking) to serve us.

Felt unwelcome we left and went down the road to Rochioli.

Wine tasting is all about the experience and hospitality should never just be a transaction. Please do not ignore your guests when you are not busy of tell us not to come!

Love These People

By Tyler F |

There is nothing more to say than don't skip this opportunity. The wine, the people, and the place are just fabulous. Definitely include in you CA wine country story. Every recommended place or activity was a smash hit. Stayed here for 3 days and loved every bit.

A cycling tour brought us to Gracianna Winery, Highly recommended!!

By Sightseer46042850198 |

We visited Gracianna Winery on our multiday cycling journey through Sonoma wine country. All of us enjoyed the tasting session. I liked all the selections but especially their Pinot Noir. I enjoyed it so much I ordered six bottles for home. The tasting is set in a beautiful, relaxed location right next to the vineyards. Our sommelier was entertaining and conveyed great knowledge about the grapes, growing process, and the Gracianna winery.
And I must also give a shout out to Wine Country Bike/Getaway Adventures in Healdsburg for for recommending Granianna.

All 8 of us highly recommend a visit to Gracianna Winery.

One of the best wineries in Sonoma County

By Relax53443610716 |

The Amadors, Fernando, Lafayette and other marvelous staff members make you feel like you are in someone’s home with the welcome you get as soon as you step from your car. The wine is superb, the wine tasting space is divine and you are sure to have a great time when you visit Gracianna.

Delicious Wines and people who make you feel like family

By Wine Luver |

Amazing wines and lovely people! I felt like they were family.
- I was mostly with Trini Amador for the wine tasting.
- Awesome guy, knowledgeable and a great sense of humor.

I just joined their Medallion Club. Can't wait for my 1st shipment!

Gracianna has (3) beautiful Pinot Noirs that should satisfy anyone's palate:
- Resilience: An elegant wine that starts out light, then morphs into really nice
flavors.
- Lasaga: A medium body Pinot with complex flavors and a long finish.
- Westside Reserve: A rich flavorful Pinot with a finish that goes on and on.

Trini told me a fun story about him and his wife Lisa catching their 15-year-old son (Trini Amador IV) secretly making wine in their garage. Fast forward Sixteen years, young Trini became the winemaker at Gracianna Winery. In his early adult years, Trini worked on his winemaking skills being mentored by the stellar Pinot Noir winemaker Bob Cabral. Not a bad start! My experience with Cabral supervised wines is anything he touches turns to gold. Bob Cabral is now making his own wine and any profits go to local charities. Sorry, I know this is a rating site, but this is a great guy doing great things! Cheers!

Revisiting Gracianna

By cwilliams1860 |

Do yourself a favor and visit Gracianna Winery when you’re in Sonoma. Fernando and Gail were perfect hosts. The setting is beautiful, the experience is very personal and relaxing…not to mention they make great wine. Last visit we met owners Lisa and Trini. They’re wonderful and gracious people.

Truly a wonderful experience

By Great W |

Gracianna is the best. But I really don't want you to know about it because I want to save it all for myself, so please don't go. Just because the wines are exceptional and world class is no reason for you to go and enjoy a glass sitting in the shade alongside the vineyard. It is a wonderful place to contemplate the state of the world and how to fix it over a truly exceptional glass of wine. So, please don't go and you will leave a space for me!

The Stockwell’s

By Wendy s |

Gracianna winery is an amazing place to visit! From their staff to the setting, everything was perfect! Definitely planning a trip to go back. Lisa and Trini were very gracious hosts.

Great time had by all!

By Gloria M |

Excellent tasting. Wines are delicious. Host was great. Had a great time. Can’t wait to come back with more friends and family.

Love this place!

By Renee |

Being in the wine biz, we don't need to be members at a winery - we get plenty of wine! However, we have made an exception with Gracianna due to this amazing family, terrific wine crew in the tasting room and vineyards, and yes - delicious wines! We enjoy our tastings outside amongst the lovely vineyards - so very relaxing and truly, while we do live in Sonoma county and have a plethora of places to choose from it is here where we spend our time. We are grateful for Gracianna :O).

great hidden gem

By Greg B |

absolutely fantastic little winery. great staff and lovely wines. cannot miss if you are in the Russian River area.

A wonderful experience

By Nina B |

Beautiful, the property, the views, air bnb and the people. It was nice to go for a walk around the vineyard in the morning, read a book and then the wine tasting room opened up to start pouring wine. The wine was wonderful!! The town is small and provides a lot of options. The hosts made us feel like family. We cannot wait to go back. Thank you Gracianna for a memorable trip.

The best wine tasting experience

By Vivian F |

We had a fantastic time at Gracianna Winery when we picked up our wine order. We usually come up with friends and bring a picnic basket of goodies to eat with our wine tasting. Lafayette usually serves us our wines during our tasting and we learn about the wines and have a great time with him. Everyone is always very friendly and welcoming whenever we come.

Wine Tasting

By Stef E |

Amazing wines and hospitality was terrific, super knowledgeable staff.
Great for small groups and the pinots were amazing

Delicious wines!

By CanteyK |

Mother and son presentation of this lovely little winery was so informative and wine tastings delightful. Couldn’t decide on our favorite so purchased quite a few.

Five stars for wines & the hosts!

By Rob M |

We had a great time at Gracianna Winery. Lafayette took very good care of us & the wines were excellent. Highly recommended.

Excellent service!

By grisgarcia2787 |

Excellent service, everyone was very friendly and the tour of the house was spectacular. I will definitely recommend them and will return.

Gracianna, I am grateful for your amazing wine and special experience...every time

By Kerry H |

Over the past several years we have tasted at dozens of wineries from Sonoma, Napa, Santa Barbara, Italy, Willamette Valley, Walla Walla Washington and even a couple on the East Coast. We always make a special trip at least once a year to go to Gracianna Winery in Healdsburg. We love wine and appreciate good wine makers. We have seen glamorous settings to more rustic settings. We have been impressed by exceptional hospitality all over the world. But when it comes down to it, Gracianna is the only one that scores a perfect 10 in every category from Wine (probably a 12 out of 10 rating), atmosphere, hospitality and simply making you feel like you are one of the family from the moment you step out of your car to the moment you depart. When you leave Gracianna (with a trunk full of amazing award winning wine), you can't help but feel like you just dropped your first kid off to college. You are beaming with pride, smiling and almost weeping at the same time...that is how special this place is. Cheers to Trini, Lisa, Fernando and Lafayette and all of the other people at Gracianna that make it my home!

The friendly and engaging attitude of the staff, and excellent product is an incentive to share a visit with friends.

By Steve M |

Our visits to Gracianna Winery are always a 5 star experience at a 2 star price. The last visit occurred outside under a crystal October sky, overlooking Gracianna's vine-laden Russian River flood plain property. The highly knowledgeable staff have been with the company for many years, and as usual, allowed us to taste a full assortment of their excellent wines. As luck would have it, the owner stopped by and gave us an interesting seminar on the successes and stresses of the current wine business. Unfortunately, being a small winery, they are closed during a couple of the winter months, so if a visit is desired, that should be checked.

Beautiful Day!

By Cha-ChaHughes |

What a beautiful day at Gracianna winery! From the moment you step onto the property, you are surrounded by loveliness. The people are warm and genuine, and so happy to make you feel right at home. The setting is old world charm…. Elegant yet comfortable. And the star of the show is their delicious Pinot Noirs. Their Pinots are among the best I’ve ever tasted. Thank you Gracianna for providing a fabulous day…. I am grateful!
Mark & Cha-Cha

Great wines and tasting!

By Chris T |

Highly recommend! The wines were great and the vineyard was very accessible… took some pictures of the vines while enjoying the tasting.

Best tasting experience ever

By Steve Pacini |

Probably the best tasting experience in our 40+ years of appreciating good wine and friendly attentive service. Trini (sp), the owner could not have been a more gracious host, along with his staff. After our tasting, he took everyone on the tasting patio into his custom built home/mansion for a tour and explanation of the architecture and art pieces he had chosen for this special piece of heaven.
Every wine we tasted was great, especially reserve Pinot and their Zinfandel.
Trini took time to chat with every visitor at the winery and entertained us with stories about his past in the entertainment industry, coaching and representing top talent like Stevie Nicks, Meatloaf, The Bee Gees and several others. He was also the station manager at San Jose rock station KOME during their heyday in the 80’s. Very interesting and talented gentleman.
Though the vineyard is small (3 acres), their grapes and those they purchase from top growers in the Dry Creek Valley produce some excellent wines.

I can’t recommend this winery enough. Everything about the place makes you feel at home and that you’re amongst friends and family members.

Gracias, Graciana.

A Gift in Sonoma

By S H |

Nestled in Sonoma a few hundred yards from the Russian River lies Gracianna Winery. We stayed in their loft above the tasting room in April and it was probably one of the most relaxing and enjoyable vacations I've ever had. The wine offerings were perfect and the tasting room manager, Fernando, knew so much about Sonoma. We had several engaging conversations with he and Lafayette over the course of our stay...when we departed it was as if we were saying "so long" to friends. Fernando even offered several dining options for our stay and all were outstanding, including River's End - where the Russian meets the Pacific. One of the most spectacular sunsets ever! I would give Gracianna a higher rating if it were possible. The owners, Trini and Lisa Amador, and everyone at the winery love what they do and their passion for wine and hospitality clearly shows...home to the best Pinot Noir ever! #grateful

The Magic of Gracianna

By Andrea S |

Gracianna is MAGICAL. It’s a gorgeous vineyard, the wine is incredible, and the staff are incredibly kind and friendly. Everyone goes out of their way to make sure your experience is unforgettable. The location, award-winning wine and experience is beyond words. We have planned a return in 2025—you can’t stay away for long. It’s heaven on earth.

Beautiful flowering season at a winery

By Passport06106682370 |

It was an amazing stay with gorgeous views and great wine, Fernando was there when we got there and was super helpful and informative, had our wine tastings ready and toured us around! Definitely will be staying again

A Lovely Winery Tour Beyond Expectations

By Miriam Bogler |

We scheduled a tour in Gracianna winery and the experience was beyond expectations. The winery was founded by the Amador family, a couple and their son and immediately when we arrived, we were introduced to the history of the winery and to the excellent wines that they make. Following the wine tasting, the Amadors took us to their home and while introducing us to their beautiful house, they also told us about the history of the family, and the different artifacts that symbolize different milestones in their history. This tour was one of the best that we have ever experienced and we highly recommend it to anyone.

Don't pass up this stop on the Miracle Mile!

By Scott M |

Wonderful visit! Staff (Fernando) was super personable and knowledgeable. Enjoyed the wines and the atmosphere. Highly recommend this stop on the Miracle Mile!

Great wine and gracious host

By cmehlers21 |

Gracianna Winery was a wonderful experience- poured great wine, welcomed us into their home, shared experiences and gave great recommendations in the area. Cannot wait to visit again.

Special and exclusive

By Timothy M |

Very small in the best way possible! Lafayette was knowledgeable and actually used descriptions that made sense. Not over predictive but fun that much of what he noted, we could really taste.
Lots of time to enjoy the beautiful scenery and taste the grapes. Amazing drive out past wineries we didn’t visit, but no regrets after our time at Graciana.
Would love to return and stay in the bnb. It seems like a wonderful place with a family like community among those who work and make the wines.

Treated like Family with Delicious Wine

By Steve I |

Incredible spot with fantastic wine. Fernando and Lafayette treated us like family and we felt so taken care of.

We stopped there as part of our 20th anniversary and it was 10/10.

We bought some bottles of their delicious wine and look forward to savoring more Gracianna!

Can't Beat the Friendly Atmosphere!

By kleverkira |

I'd had Gracianna wines before, so I knew the wines were great, but I wasn't prepared for the hospitality. We were welcomed and treated like family from the moment we stepped onto the property. As one of the few remaining family-owned and operated wineries, you will not regret giving Gracianna a visit.

Great experience

By Jud A |

We will definitely be back with friends. What a great experience. The owners and staff treated us like family. A wonderful bonus was their wines were delicious. The location was so beautiful and relaxing. It’s a must visit.

Delightful tasting

By hubs4mil1 |

Nice wines and a good variety as well. We had beautiful vineyard views and the environment was very peaceful for a tasting.

Great experience and wines!

By Debbie B |

My husband and I visited with another couple. Lafayette was very informative and enhanced our wine experience by explaining about measuring brix and demonstrating how it is measured. I had heard of the term but had no idea of the process. He is a great asset for the winery. We are visiting from East TN and out of the 13 wineries we visited in our week in the area, this was my favorite. We joined your club and will split shipments.

Best wine experience

By Nicholas B |

The best winery I’ve been to…..and I’ve been to a lot. The wine is awesome and everyone I’ve taken has loved it. The owners are extremely hospitable and took us to their house for a private tour.

Truly Exceptional!

By ReneSchaefer |

Wow! Beautiful venue, exceptional service, delicious wine and a great value. We especially liked the Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. Enjoy!!!!

Beautiful vineyard views and excellent hospitality!

By Meghan W |

We stayed three nights on our honeymoon and loved it! Beautiful views of the vineyard, excellent wine, 15 minute drive to Healdsburg. The hosts were so friendly and accommodating, and the apartment is clean, airy and quiet. Highly recommend!

Thankful

By Michael R |

Incredibly kind and welcoming hosts. The wine was great and their hospitality was even better. They offered us pizza upon arrival, gave us local recommendations, and even a tour of their home. We had coffee in the morning with a superb view and the room was great! Spacious and comfortable. We recommend Gracianna and would love to come back!

Wonderfully vibrant, friendly and warm. Beautiful wines.

By macfre5 |

So enjoyed our tasting with Lafayette, Fernando and a visit from Trini. We especially love the Pinot Noir and Stagecoach Cabernet. Thank you for making our group feel so welcome. Your hospitality and wine making is excellent.

Great stay and great wine!

By Lauren G |

We had a wonderful stay! Trini and the entire team made us feel right at home. They make some of the best Pinots in California! We can’t wait to stay again.

Beauty and hospitality

By changeslattitudes |

We stayed in the loft apartment overnight and then enjoyed a wine tasting the next day. The loft apartment was exactly as advertised via Airbnb- well appointed, good amenities, excellent communication. The tasting the next day offered superb hospitality, a variety of wines in the vineyard, and a personal visit by the owner. I highly recommend.

Treated us Like family.

By Valliappan L |

I have been to a quite few wineries in my life, but none are like Graciana. I know it’s cliche but they treated us all like family when we were there. Trini, his wife, maya their dog, Fernando and the whole staff were just so welcoming. I’ll for sure be going back. They don’t everything with intentionality and i left the winery feeling inspired to live the same way as well.

Idyllic stay and wonderful wines!

By pj m |

We were greeted by Fernando who was most helpful in every way. After checking into this beautiful space, we were offered a complimentary wine tasting of wonderful wines. Trini, the owner, was incredibly kind to us and shared his family history and a tour of the grounds and vineyards. What a special place on the Russian River! We appreciated the beautiful architecture and the care taken in creating this idyllic spot. We would not hesitate to come back. Thank you, Trini for a lovely stay!

Amazing!

By Trip56968730741 |

Such an amazing time! In fact, this is where I got engaged! Such a wonderful memory that I will have forever. I can't recommend enough.

Best experience, highly recommend!

By Leslie B |

Such superb customer service, in a natural, friendly way. It’s like talking to good friends. Never any pushy sales pitch (the wine sells itself!) Moreover, the setting is absolutely beautiful and the wine soooooooo good. Highly recommend!!

What a wonderful return to Gracianna!

By Dan C |

Had a fantastic return visit to Gracianna last week! It was a pleasure to be served by the very knowledgeable, but also charming and relatable Fernando who gave us a great tour of the wines. The pinot noirs especially were all incredible, but the Zin we tried and the whites and a rose were so very good as well. Loved hearing a bit of the rich history of the place and this winery's philosophy. We were lucky enough to meet the owner Trini once again this time - to learn more from him and have a very nice genuine conversation like we'd known him for years. We definitely treasured our time at this beautiful winery and can't wait to return!

Wonderful wine!

By Kathy D |

We had a wonderful experience at Gracianna! Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. The wine was outstanding. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there

Gracianna Winery...a MUST visit in Sonoma Wine Country

By Kerry H |

There are wineries with great wine, there are wineries with great experiences....Gracianna has the most amazing (and award winning) wines, the most intimate experience and you pretty much want to join family Amador once you walk into the space. Whether you are celebrating something special, just exploring the wine country or biking the area...all are welcome and leave with alot to tell their friends back home.

Everything was FIRST CLASS!!!!

By Timothy Fawcett |

The weekend weather was just PERFECT!

And everything was FIRST Class with Lisa, Trini and EVEN Fernando! :)

Timothy Fawcett

A lovely afternoon!

By Kelsey S |

Beautiful views. Kind, knowledgeable, and welcoming hosts. Everyone was so accommodating and enjoyable to interact with. I would absolutely recommend this winery to anyone in the area!

Unforgettable and Unique Property!

By Trip02825882215 |

Would give this place 10 stars if I could! The host is so responsive and everything was exactly as advertised. Wish we could have stayed longer - will definitely be returning!

Relaxing afternoon!

By Jennifer V |

We enjoyed a relaxing afternoon at Gracianna. We were in the area to celebrate our son’s college graduation and decided to make a reservation for a tasting. We were greeted by Fernando immediately with a fresh bowl of water for our dog. We settled in with our picnic lunch under a shaded table and the tasting began. Fernando paced the tasting with us and provided fun conversation and interesting information about wine and the harvest. We loved how relaxed the winery was and how we had Fernando’s undivided attention all afternoon. Highly recommend for a quiet, weekday afternoon. The scenery was beautiful as well. There was no rush for us to leave once the next guests arrived. We will be back next time we are in the area.

How wine country used to be

By Stephen M |

Great little family run winery on the beautiful Westside Rd in Russian River. Used to be lots of these small family run places but they are a dying breed. Great to see these guys making it work.

We felt like family during our visit.

By subihne |

The setting is beautiful and bucolic. The wines are excellent and award-winning. Another important facet of Gracianna Winery is the people. My wife and I visited the winery to pick up our orders. We hadn't been there in many months. Despite that, we were welcomed as if we were family - with great warmth and respect. That feeling permeated our entire visit, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Our conversations with Trini, Fernando and Lafayette were entertaining and informational. We look forward to visiting frequently.

Very nice venue for tasting some nice wines.

By Joby |

Beautiful May afternoon, wineries are less crowed this time of year and temps were in the 70’s. Our host was great, our conversation regarding wine making and flood planes was enjoyable. Nice section of wines and a relaxed atmosphere to taste them.

Tranquil and welcoming

By Jane s |

We had the most wonderful time at Gracianna! Our hosts were so welcoming and the setting of the vineyards could not be more peaceful and beautiful. Our loft apartment was lovely, clean and was well furnished with everything. Definitely we will return! We are Grateful for Gracianna.

Great wine, amazing hospitality!

By Jim W |

Fantastic Wine, beautiful location and the hospitality was off the hook, everything was terrific. The positive vibes were infectious. Truly a gift!

Amazing wines and hospitality

By Coastal414352 |

Had a magical experience and day at Gracianna. From the owners, Trini and Lisa, to the manager, Fernando, the beautiful vineyards, patio seating, tasting, etc.
Wonderful experience and each tasting was delicious. The Pinot and Sauvignon were our favorites and will be signing up to be a member most definitely! Thank you for the fabulous experience.

Wonderful stay!!

By Cathy C |

My husband I stayed at Gracianna Winery's wonderful airbnb above the tasting room for 2 nights. The space is bright, spacious, and is very European in it's ambiance and decor - we could have been in Tuscany or Burgundy except we were in Sonoma County, which is just as nice! There are many windows to bring in all the light, each with a stunning view of the vineyards outside. We cooked dinner one night in the fully-equipped kitchen, watched a movie in the comfy living room area and slept like babies in the comfortable bed with wonderful linens. We were so cosy even in the winter as the heating system works very well and is quiet. The grounds surrounding are lovely with Pinot Noir vineyards, the Russian River nearby, patios and picnic tables to enjoy the outdoors. We rode bikes along Westside road, enjoyed tasting at wineries nearby and dined and shopped in Healdsburg, which is a few minutes drive away. Thank you to the hosts for creating such a wonderful space.

Gracianna Winery is worth a visit

By Steve F |

Excellent wines, good variety, friendly staff, beautiful grounds. The owner took us on a tour of his house, which is amazing!

Bride’s celebration

By beverlyl84tahoe |

Gracianna was the perfect place to celebrate our friend, the bride, together with girlfriends and family. Trini and Lisa, the owners, were incredibly welcoming and made sure we had a special table and everything we needed for our guests. The wine was wonderful and the friendly staff served us throughout our celebration. We were right on the vineyard so it was very scenic. Trini even gave us a tour of their place, telling us about the art and architecture. We had a beautiful day, and couldn’t have been happier!

Great Wines and People!

By Ralph M |

A wonderful family owned winery with amazing owners and staff!! Everyone should drop by for the wine! Drop by anytime and say hi to Maya the pet Lab.

Laid Back atmosphere, and friendly people

By Drew G |

We found Gracianna from an airbnb host's recommendation. It was a great time. We showed up around 3:30pm without a reservation, and they found us a great table with shade right by the vines. We were encouraged to go and drink wine in the vineyard which was a magical experience, and it felt more like hanging our with friends, than a promotional experience. This is exactly the vibe my party was looking for in the Russian River area, and we already have some bottles on the way to our homes!

Gracianna-A fantastic, small, quaint Winery!

By annigrahek24 |

This vineyard/winery is exactly what I pictured wine country to be! The big, long table that was set up for our group of 6 was amazing! They used an oak tree that had fallen and made it into a beautiful table! The staff were knowledgeable and attentive. The Lasaga Pinot Noir is a MUST!

Come visit old friends and have amazing wine.

By Voyager51837753877 |

There is no shortage of places that make good wine in the region. What sets this place apart is the fact that a visit feels like visiting old friends. The entire family is in on the action right down to a grandchild running around. Oh and by the way the wines are spectacular. It’s not just me saying it, the awards are there to prove it. So when you are tired of stuffy big wineries who crank out thousands upon thousands of cases come to this place where all that matters is the wine and you! We are planning our next trip already and will likely stay at their air bnb.

A slice of Italy in Healdsburg

By Laura F |

Graciously friendly owners, amazing staff and lovely wines! Even better to enjoy them overlooking the gorgeous vineyards and spending time with the owners as they shared the story of their winery! Such a special place!

Happy club members

By richrpaint |

Always a great experience and enjoy catching up with staff and owners. 10 years and the wine and hospitality never waivers!

Sonoma county hospitality at its best

By Nick T |

This is a small winery nestled in the winding, bucolic back roads of Sonoma county along West Dry Creek Road. Small but packs a punch on the wines we tasted and hospitality that was extended to us. The owners Lisa and Trini, the staff Lafayette, Delores, and Fernando were all delightful and could not have been more helpful and accommodating. We were made to feel very welcome when we took a party of 8 people. Everyone enjoyed the wines and we all had our favorites. The vineyard backs onto the Russian River so enjoying the status of being on the 'golden mile'. Do not forget to enquire about the accommodation above the wine tasting room, its delightful with views over the vineyard.

Great wines, great winery and amazing staff!

By highwaytaz2022 |

We love Gracianna Winery and its staff. The tasting room and grounds are beautiful and the staff is wonderful. We are always treated like family when we visit. Along with the beautiful grounds and great staff we also are treated to great wines. The wines keep getting better every time we visit.

Wish I could give more than 5 stars! We loved Gracianna. Definitely recommend& we will be back.

By Samantha R |

Such a lovely experience. Everyone that worked there was so kind & hospitable! The wine was fabulous. & the tasting area was BEAUTIFUL. Truly wish I could give more than 5 stars.

Highly recommend you experience Gracianna ASAP!

By Navigator253343 |

What a FANTASTIC wine tasting experience! There were five of us ranging in age from 21 to 58 and each of us thoroughly enjoyed our time at Gracianna! The wines are EXCELLENT, as was the hospitality, passion and knowledge Fernando so graciously bestowed upon us!

A wonderful wine tasting experience

By Vivian F |

We have been medallion members of Gracianna Winery for several years. We always enjoy our visits to the winery. Everyone is very friendly and we have a wonderful time with our friends. We usually pack a picnic lunch to have with our wine tasting. We love spending time with Lafayette, who serves the wine and gives us insight into the tasting. Trini & Lisa always greet us like family. Gracianna is a wonderful place to visit and buy wine.

A gift of a winery

By eswrite |

So glad we decided to drive to this seemingly out of the way location. Fernando guided us through a delicious and informative wine tasting. This small-scale production winery and its picturesque tasting room are well worth the visit.

Gracianna Wine Tasting

By ftlwilliam |

What a wonderful experience. Lovely wine and spectacular views of the vineyard. Fernando was very knowledgeable and attentive

Grateful for Gracianna!

By Rebecca B |

Great wine and beautiful atmosphere! Best winery that we went to during our week! I am so grateful for our Gracianna existing, it was the highlight of our trip!

Delightful visit

By Sunshine43997862906 |

The winery was peaceful and beautiful. We had a personal visit, tour of the vineyard and a bonus peak at their lovely home.

Beautiful vineyard, delicious wine, amazing owners and staff, amazing memories made. One for the books!

By Jenn R |

This was the best winery we visited during our trip to Napa. It’s a small, family owned winery and it is so special! We were welcomed by the friendly staff when we arrived and Trini (one of the owners) helped deliver our wine, told amazing stories, and made us feel like we were friends from long ago. I would 100% recommend this winery to anyone. Not only was the service amazing, the wine was delicious!!

Traveling with friends

By Michelle C |

One of the best winery experiences while in California with friends! Wine was fantastic and the staff was like no other. Very hospitable and friendly! We will definitely visit again!
Yours truly,
Michelle (aka the girl with the Brooklyn accent)

Great small family owned winery

By MrLebo |

We found Gracianna through some research and glad we did. It is its a small, quaint vineyard run by a wonderful couple and son. The pinot and chards were very good. Best to bring a picnic and enjoy the environs and hospitality!

True gem

By Adventure64370263103 |

My mother-in-law randomly came across this winery on a drive on west side road and it is truly a gem. A small family owned operation with a great origin story. The wines they were pouring were levels above anything else in Alexander Valley or Dry Creek Valley. Very passionate hosts. Fun side by side tasting of Chard, Zin and a Malbec. If you haven't been here you're missing out. Definitely a new stop for me when I tour with family or visitors.

A Perfect Day

By benwoods1953 |

Walk thru the entry to the sound of soft guitar music being played, select a shady table and sit back. Beautiful wines with beautiful people. Don't miss this opportunity.

We love Gracianna!!

By Renee |

We were welcomed with open arms and had a tipple in our glasses within minutes! Smiles all around and just a gracious and delightful staff. We love Gracianna!!

One of a Kind Experience

By Julie F |

When researching wineries in Sonoma County there are so many to choose from it can be overwhelming. Look no more-Gracianna Winery is the best experience I have ever had at a winery! It is tasteful, quiet, breathtaking and the wine is fabulous. We met with Trini( the owner) and were treated like one of the family. We were even given a tour of his lovely home and met his wife Lisa. The story of his Grandmother and the joy of being grateful was evident in the quality of the wine and the beautiful winery his family has created.

Worthwhile stop with a personal touch

By calirae09 |

We are glad we found Gracianna! My husband and I rented bikes from Healdsburg and made a couple stops along this road on our trip. We felt welcome here and liked the personal touch of the service we got. The wines were higher quality than the other places we went on our trip, and we liked that we got to learn some history about the local area during the tasting.

By far favorite tasting of our trip! Feels like a local secret

By Carley R |

We LOVED Graciana and it was our favorite winery of our stay from out of town. Definitely feels like a local secret. The stunning views, the incredible and friendly people, the rustic charm, and of course the amazing wine! We ended up having a picnic on site and Lafayette did such an amazing job! We can’t wait to come back some day

Ten outa ten!

By Scout C |

Incredibly authentic from start to finish. Can’t say enough good things about the crew working and the property, not to mention the amazing wine! Thanks guys

An awesome winery to visit

By roydtennant |

Gracianna is a great place to visit, and their wines are uniformly wonderful. They source from some really great vineyards (for example, the legendary Bacigalupi), as well as estate vines to craft from wines that are truly great. We never leave without some bottles in hand. If the weather is inclement, you can taste indoors, but we prefer sitting outside overlooking the vineyards.

Exquisite, peaceful, enchanting!

By E M |

What an exquisite place. You are immersed in the peaceful vineyards that stretch for as far as the eye can see. It's heaven. Staying in the large studio above the wine tasting bar for a few days was an excellent idea to undo all the action and revive my spirit. It's beautifully furnished and ultra comfy. My favorite features are the loftiness, the sturdiness of the solid block structure, the paint-worthy views in every direction, the romantic bedroom with french doors opening to a balcony where I watched the rain... loved The kitchen with wolf stove, the fabulous breakfast 'tower" and dancing around on the shiny marble (?) floor... The Gracianna crew are gracious indeed and and lovely to chat with. (Don't miss the wine tasting downstairs )I'll be back for sure. FIVE STARS ! Grazie Mille.

Great and friendly place!

By Monica Ozbek |

My husband and I went for wine tasting to Gracianna Winery for the first time and we couldn't be more impressed and happier for the friendliness of the owners and workers. They take the time not just to explain you how the wine tasting works, but also, they sat with us to chat like we were longtime friends! Very nice place with beautiful views and great wine. We are also a small business owners and know how important is to leave a review, so here it is! Highly recommended place to go!

Peace, Serenity and Wine!

By John A |

The Loft at Gracianna is THE place to stay. The location on Westside Road provides the peace and serenity for a remarkably relaxing stay. Far enough from the hustle and bustle for a quiet and relaxing stay, but close enough to Healdsburg to be convenient for dining, shopping, etc. The loft provides every comfort and amenity you need……and Trini, Lisa, Fernando and Lafayette will make you feel like family. And don’t pass on the opportunity to take a morning walk in the Vineyard with Lisa and Maya!

Great wine and hospitality

By Becky W |

We recently visited Gracianna winery during a visit to Healdsburg. We had tasted their wine before and were excited to do a tasting at their vineyard. Fernando guided us through the tasting, and Trini the owner graciously shared his families’ inspiring story. The warmth and hospitality of the team made our visit a special experience. It was lovely sipping great wine while looking at the beautiful vineyard. Great wine, gracious hosts, a serene setting…What a wonderful day.

Wonderful winery! Beautiful site, great tasting room experience and BEAUTIFUL Wines.

By BJ C |

It was a wonderful visit. The wines offered were delicious, specially when we got to the Pinots. Lafayette was friendly and knowledgeable about explaining each wines. (Please thank him for his lovely note).

When asked what separated the award winning 2023 Reserved Pinot from the rest of the Russian River/Sonoma Pinots. He allowed us to have a small taste (wow!) and purchased two bottles. Thank you! Such a well balanced, rich and delicious wine. The whole family enjoyed it a lot over dinner!

BJ Chin

Hot Sunday afternoon and a cool retreat in the shade.

By 301michaelrs |

Outstanding hosts for this couple. Showed us around, took the time to talk with us and we appreciated the personal attention. The wines tasted, Pinot Noir and a Chardonnay were both delicious and warranted a purchase! We'll be back.

Happy magical place with very balanced delightful wine

By jennifer c |

beautifully enchanting architecture with the tasting room nestled in.
we came just before closing and felt very welcome. The wine was quite worthy of purchasing several bottles!

Will visit again soon!

By Fiona W |

Such a beautiful location and wines are great too! We were treated like royalty by the tasting room staff and had the opportunity to meet and talk to the owner along with other guests visiting the winery. He shared a lot of background about the family, the wines and we will definitely go back again soon!

Insufferable Owner

By Lawrence F |

The visit started well, and we enjoyed a nice lunch on the back patio. That experience changed when we were invited to tour the home of Trini Amador, the owner of the vineyard. What should have been an intimate and memorable experience was derailed by a pretentious, self-aggrandizing blow hard. The vineyard would be far better off leaving him to bask in his own self-importance while the genuinely gracious and capable staff handle every aspect of hospitality.

Wonderful Winery, People, & Service

By Vivian F |

We spent a lovely Fall afternoon at Gracianna celebrating our good friend’s birthday as well as picking up our shipment. Everyone at Gracianna makes you feel part of their family and are very welcoming. We enjoy coming and bringing our friends.

Must visit spot!

By Lisa S |

With great wine, even better people and a beautiful, rural location, Gracianna Winery should be up high on your list of wineries to visit in the Russian River Valley. The location is in between Healdsburg and Forestville and the experience is personal and down to earth. Bring your camera, your palate and don't be in a rush or you'll likely miss great stories and possibly an impromptu tour of the property.

Girls trip to Gracianna

By Bernadette |

Wonderful experience at Gracianna. Beautiful winery, excellent wines and friendly owners and staff. Very relaxed atmosphere- we will be back 🍷

Grateful for our visit to Gracianna Winery

By Linda B |

We enjoyed every minute of our tasting as we sat alongside the vineyards. The staff were super friendly - we had lovely chats with Fernando and Lafayette, and heard family and vineyard stories from Trini - the owner - all at different times. This winery is on our return to visit list.

The Perfect Stay at Gracianna Winery

By markinohio2020 |

The Loft at Gracianna Winery is absolutely beautiful online and even better in person. It is spacious and comfortable, a great place for relaxing, with lovely views of the vineyard. Our hosts were very helpful in contacting us ahead of time, guiding us to their location, and welcoming us when we arrived. We especially appreciated the full kitchen, its modern appliances, a shower to die-for, and, at the end of the day, the super-comfy king-size bed. Everything about our stay was perfect: the hosts, their wines, and our lodgings. Thank you, Trini and Lisa, for your gracious ways of reaching out, and for the gratitude your hospitality inspires. We look forward to enjoying the Loft with our next visit.

Grateful for Gracianna!

By Shelley C |

This is the 3rd time my husband and I have stayed at the loft at Gracianna and one of many times we have tasted there.
Gracianna is just so special! Trini, Lisa, Fernando, and crew are so welcoming! The property is stunning, and the wines are also stunning. There is a reason we keep coming back! Everyone there is so friendly and welcoming, the views are unparalleled, and the wines are spectacular!
We finally joined the wine club ( not sure why we didn’t do it earlier!) , and I can’t wait to see our medallion hanging among the gorgeous vines! Please visit Gracianna! You will be happy you did!

Friendly winery, excellent wine

By Vivian F |

On Mother’s Day we picked up our wine and had a wine tasting with a couple of friends. You couldn’t ask for a great way to spend Mother’s Day. Gracianna’s staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about the wine and winery. We loved all the wines that we tasted.

The best!

By cabinsforme |

The best place for fine wine, hospitality and new friendships. You feel like part of the family! Pinots are yummy and Zin and Cab outstanding! Don't miss the cookbooks! Take a walk through the vineyard and breathe deep. You'll be back!

Wonderful getaway with amazing views

By Bernadette R |

The property is Beautiful with views, great location, extremely comfortable and private. It was everything we were looking for.
Can’t wait to return

The highlight of our Sonoma trip! Highly recommended, and we will be back!

By Jeff A |

We visited Gracianna in early May, 2023. It's a beautiful, intimate venue with some outstanding wines, particularly the Pinots. During our tasting, Trini joined us, answering questions about the wines, sharing his family's story and how they got started in the business, and just making us feel at home and a part of the family! The staff were also amazing, particularly Lafayette and Fernando! Trini and Lisa, you've built something special, thank you for your hospitality.

This Hidden Gem Has Quickly Become a Favorite!

By The_Real_Captain_Joe |

We have been to Sonoma wine country many times over the years and enjoy discovering new wineries. Gracianna is now one of our favorites. We had an unexpected tour from the owner that we will never forget. He shared stories about the unique features of the winery and the artwork. The wine is superb and it is clear that this is a labor of love. It is now a tradition that Gracianna Zinfandel graces our Christmas dinner table. Highly recommend. It's a gem!

Beautiful loft for a couple

By Donald Z |

We stayed at the loft at Gracianna Winery and absolutely loved it. It is a beautiful setting and set up perfectly for a couple. Just a short drive to all the great restaurants in Healdsburg and even closer to numerous wineries along the “miracle mile”. We will be back!

Hawaii family visit

By Traveling Birds |

Fernando, you were so gracious and attentive to handle all the women tasters. It was an education. The wines were fantastic. Your exuberance and hospitality made the afternoon tasting very very enjoyable.
Thanks so much and Aloha .

Excellent Tasting Experience

By katieparker52023 |

Beautiful views, friendly and welcoming family owned business, great wine! We absolutely loved our visit!

day in the vineyard

By Steve J |

we went to this little winery as a result of having met the owner at dinner. the experience was quite lovely we sat in the vineyard in the shade and had our 4 dogs with us. the wines were yummy and the ambiance just perfect. we went home with a case of wine

Wonderful afternoon experience!

By Fearless62126749567 |

We had a top few hours at this stellar winery! The wine was great (especially Pinot and Zin), but the real wow factor was the people we met!
The folks are outstanding here and we loved every minute. Thank you to Trini and his wonderful team for a brilliant and relaxing afternoon in a beautiful setting!

A pleasant surprise

By Linda s |

Gracianna was the last winery we visited during this trip. We were impressed with the knowledge of both Lafayette & Sandro. They were friendly and laidback. It was a great experience!

Gifts for my Nieces

By Diana M |

I heard about Gracianna Winery on a podcast, On the wine road. I was excited to learn of a Basque Winery in California because my family is French Basque.
I ordered for my niece two years a bottle of Resistance Pinot Noir , Gracianna onesie . Fernando was very gracious and sent the gift to my niece.
Two years later both my nieces in Austin are having baby girls. So I ordered again a bottle of Resistance Pinot Noir, Gracianna onsies and a book written by Trini Amador for each of my nieces. Lafayette was gracious to have the books signed by Trini Amador for each of my nieces. I also ordered wines for myself and I will definitely order again. The wines are wonderful!! Thank you again for being so gracious for creating wonderful wines and having a very memorable gift for my nieces and future wine drinkers!!

Beautiful Russian River Valley Winery

By Carson C |

Gracianna's selection of award-winning wines are reason enough to make the trip out to this Russian River Valley winery. On top of this, the Gracianna property is absolutely stunning. While we didn't stay overnight, it is definitely on our bucket list!

Wonderful Wine Tasting Experience!

By Jenny C |

We had an absolutely wonderful visit to Gracianna. We scheduled a tasting for four and couldn't have had a better experience. The wine was lovely, the views of the vineyard stunning, and the hospitality was incredible. We happily joined the wine club and can't wait to go back.

Hidden Gem

By Wendy V |

Intimate, gracious and lovely. Gorgeous location, personalized care, inspiring origin story, unique experience and delicious wines at a good price point.

a special place

By dmaust11 |

The simple beauty and refinement of the vineyard grounds do not conceal the warm patina of an authentic, grace-filled life that the Amador family and their wines exude. We look forward to returning. As new wine club members, we will let the flavors take us back until then.

- Dan and Missy

Family centered wine experience

By Carla D |

Gracianna is a family centered winery with exceptional hospitality and amazing wine!
If you are in search of a wine tasting experience where you will instantly feel like family this is your place. We will definitely stop to see them again next time we are in the area.

Wine Purchase

By K1709PCwilliamz |

staff very friendly and helpful. I love the wines and recommend that visitors in the area stop and visit.

So much fun and we can't wait for our first shipment to arrive!

By julia k |

My college friends and I visited Gracianna as part of a special girls weekend away. We could not have chosen a better place to visit. Lafayette was delightful, so knowledgable and the wine was fantastic. On our conversation home, we all said that we couldn't believe how much we learned. By far one of the most educational and enjoyable wine tasting experiences we ever had.

A top group experience

By stephen s |

We were a group of twenty six men and women gathered at the nearby retreat center for a reunion of our Rhodes Scholar class. We had asked for something substantially more informative than a conventional winery tasting. The Gracianna staff and owners responded with a detailed presentation (that was also humorous) about the agricultural and winery procedures as well as the history of the Gracianna venture. They subtly integrated tasting the full spectrum of Gracianna wines into the seminar, and Trini and Lisa opened their remarkable home for a tour. Ours was a simply wonderful group experience.

Gracianna Winery, I am so so thankful

By Kerry H |

Took 6 of my long time friends and the visit to Gracianna was the highlight of our reunion. Fernando, Laffi, Trini and Lisa made us all feel like we were at home, but we felt like we belong to this magical place. And that is just the service and ambiance. The wine went even higher as we were blown away each time we took a sip. So, so wonderful!

Wine Tasting experience

By celeste h |

What a beautiful and memorable stay. This winery was everything we hoped for and more. The whole experience brought back memories of our time in Italy---the charm, the scenery, and of course the wine. Speaking of which, the wine was excellent!! Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful, picturesque getaway with top-notch hospitality and unforgettable wine. If ever in the area again....would definitely stay there.

Visit here was one of the highlights of our California trip

By Bob J |

We had a phenomenal experience at this winery. The wines were excellent. The staff, Lafayette and Fernando were enthusiastic, friendly, and knowledgeable. The owner, Trini, stopped by to spend time with us, which was appreciated.
We highly recommend this winery.

Wonderful wines and hospitality

By Rick B |

We had such a great time at Gracianna. The setting is beautiful and peaceful, right by the river, and you instantly feel relaxed as soon as you walk in. The staff could not have been nicer. They made us feel completely at home and were happy to answer questions without ever rushing us. The wines were fantastic, especially the Pinot Noir which was easily one of the best I have tried anywhere. What I loved most is how personal the whole experience felt. You can tell this is a family owned winery and that they truly care about what they are creating and how they treat their guests. We left with a few bottles and already wish we had bought more.

Ride and wine

By umpirata2023 |

Very nice setting. great wines.
Went there on a bicycle tour, they were waiting for us and had an area for our group to sit and chat. Great atmosphere .

Beautiful and Intimate Winery experience in the Russian River Valley

By Jennifer M |

We had a wonderful experience. So much so we became members. The wines were delicious, and the setting was beautiful. Looking forward to when we can return!

A+ experience in the heart of Sonoma

By Stacey W |

We are wine club members of Gracianna, which made our 5-night stay even more enjoyable! Since the harvest was all finished prior to our stay, it was super peaceful and quite (day and night). I am back to my regular job today, feeling fully refreshed from our stay in the Gracianna tasting room loft! Thanks, Trini, for making all aspects of our stay in Sonoma an A+

Gracianna's Warm Inviting People

By Brandon U |

There are many wineries in the Healdsburg area with fantastic wines. Gracianna seperates itself not only by offering superb wines but also by it's people. Fernando and Lafayette bring a passion for their wines and a warm friendliness that makes Gracianna feel like you are at a good friend's home, enjoying a relaxing evening out back, while they pour you some of their favorites and you trade stories new and old.

Amazing!!!! Don't miss out!!!

By gmdelsecco |

We had a small (20 person) business event at Gracianna Winery last week and had a fabulous time. The winery is beautiful, the hospitality was exceptional, the food was amazing, and the price was right on budget. I highly recommend Gracianna Winery!!

Gracianna Winery - you HAVE to have to visit!

By Maya G |

This wine tasting trip was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Every single person was so kind, from Fernando to Trini and Lisa. The winery itself is beautiful and the wine is to die for. If I could come back every weekend, I would! I highly recommend Gracianna Winery, you won’t find a more welcoming, peaceful retreat.

Great Visit

By FarAway26309536196 |

We had a wonderful visit to Gracianna Winery. Fernando was our host and he took very good care of us. We did the Premium wine tasting experience. Our favorite wines were the Pinot Noirs, Zinfandels and the Pinot Rose. We highly recommend Gracianna.

Great place to stay!

By Phyllis W |

We had such a great experience at Gracianna Winery! My husband and I stayed two nights while on a road trip and couldn't have been happier with the beautiful, spacious accomodations and the friendly staff at Gracianna! We will definitely stay again if we're ever in the area!

Gracianna Winery - Fantastic experience

By Leslie B |

We had an absolutely spectacular experience at Gracianna Winery. Their warm welcome and amazing hospitality made us feel like family. The property is simply beautiful - the al fresco tasting room just delightful spilling out onto picnic tables and charming vineyards. I know of no other winery tasting experience like this. The fabulous team and award-winning wines at Gracianna are truly 10 stars!

A Grateful Gem in Sonoma

By Helen C |

We were initially drawn to Gracianna Winery by its striking architecture and breathtaking views—but what we found was something even more special: old-world charm infused with heartfelt gratitude.

We sat outdoors and were warmly greeted by Trini, the owner, who generously shared the story of how he built the vineyard and home—each step a tribute to his family, the land, and the craft of winemaking. It’s rare to feel such authenticity and care woven into every detail of a place.

Trini offered us a generous tasting lineup. The Pinot Noir stood out with its elegant complexity and excellent value, especially in today’s California wine market. Their wines have earned several awards, and it’s easy to see why.

Between the stunning setting, the welcoming team, and the deeply personal touch throughout, Gracianna is a cozy gem in Sonoma.

Amazing Wine!

By capmedsales |

The wine was so amazing we joined the club! Love this small winery and their attention to the detail of wine making.

Great times at Gracianna!!

By NorthStar48208831472 |

Every time I visit the staff are so very friendly and attentive. The scenery is beautiful. I love that I can bring my dog and walk along the vineyard with her.

Grateful

By Helen C |

This is a wonderful winery to visit. The wines are excellent, and the hosts are gracious and welcoming.

Grateful for our visit to Gracianna.

By Walt S |

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful visit to Gracianna yesterday made so by the enthusiasm and knowledge about all things wine shared with us by Fernando. We highly recommend Gracianna as a stop on your Westside Road wine tasting path.

Exceptional Day

By Lisa W |

Always a great experience at Gracianna. Trinny and Lisa are awesome and make everyone feel welcome.

Lisa's cookbooks are awesome. Great recipes. My friends were highly impressed by everything.

Fabulous tasting and experience

By Flyer40015314202 |

Wonderful "Old School" tasting of Pinot Noir and Zinfandel. Beautiful winery setting with excellent tasting wines. Everyone I met was friendly and welcoming. Russian River is tops for me and Gracianna will always be a place I'll want to stop.

Personal touch and great wine

By Nick k |

Gracianna was so accommodating and very communicative with the heavy rain during our visit. The entire day they were calling and texting updates on where we would be doing our tasting and the tour and reassuring us that we would still be doing our tasting regardless of the weather.

Once we arrived we were welcomed with open arms and many options for wines to try! Lafayette gave a wonderful history of the vineyard and why they have their line of resilient wines.

Next time we are in the area we will be visiting again and you should too

Very good experience!

By Diana W |

We traveled with Woody’s Wine Tours to this beautiful winery. It was such a beautiful day. The wines and the setting are great! We met our hosts and they are so personable and kind. Be sure to check out the cookbooks too. I highly recommend a stop here!🍷

Earns all of their 5 stars!

By Navigate290128 |

Gracianna lived up to the high rating it gets on Tripadvisor. After seeing their reviews online, I suggested we make this our first stop on a long weekend to wine country with another couple. It was a wonderful experience. Not only were the wines excellent (everyone had their favorite- mine was the Bacigalupi Pinot Noir), but we were made to feel so welcome by Fernando Arellano, the hospitality manager, and the Amadors (owners and winemakers), both senior and son. We even ended up buying a copy of the book Mr. Amador wrote about his grandmother. The pourings weren't rushed and inbetween we enjoyed some good, light-hearted conversation. We shipped quite a few bottles home, and even came back later that weekend when we wanted a superior cab to go with some steaks we picked up to grill at our house rental. When we came back, we were warmly greeted as returning friends. They are not over the top - just people who know that good hospitality goes a long way in making a visitor's experience exceptional.

Amazing experience!!!

By H9211KGfamily |

This vineyard was one of my family’s favorites. The staff was so kind and welcoming it felt like you part of the family. I would recommend this wine and experience to anyone going to the area. It was a once in a lifetime experience.

Healdsburg Gem

By Chris B |

Beautiful property right in the vineyard. Vine view from every window. Absolutely wonderful stay, will be returning! Very nice to meet you Trini!

Gracianna Winery is a great experience

By Melony A |

This place was very clean and comfortable. the hosts were kind and gracious.
Wonderful communication. If you are going to the wine country in Sonoma County or just a nice romantic place to relax this is a wonderful place to stay.
we are looking forward to staying again.

Small Family Winery you will truly enjoy.

By Inspire32151895748 |

Gracianna Winery has fabulous wines. We really enjoy the small family winery vibe there. The owner is a great guy. I am wine salesman in the Napa Valley and taste a lot of wine. I especially love their Pinot Noirs. They have great Zinfandels also. Definitely a winery you will truly return to in the future.

Not to be missed!

By rhondafelicity |

A visit to Gracianna Winery should be at the top of your list if you’re headed to the Healdsburg area. The wines are all fantastic and so well priced for the top-notch quality, and Fernando, Lisa and Trini will make you feel like a part of their wonderful family. A truly special experience from the first sip to the last!

Charming wine country farm atmosphere

By todddhsonoma |

When you go, you get to meet the family behind the wines, which are terrific. If the weather is good, this is a must stop!

Relaxing Vineyard Retreat

By Linda V |

If I could give a 10 star rating, I would! I have been wanting to stay here for quite some time and found this to be everything I had hoped for and MORE! The view, the Gracianna wines, peaceful surroundings, and excellent recommendations to anything we needed/wanted made for a wonderful stay. I needed to find an urgent care site for an unexpected illness and Trini was quick to help us with that too! We enjoyed walking in the vineyard and visiting our wine club medallions hung on the vines as the sun was setting.
There is not enough space to convey how wonderful our stay was at the Gracianna Loft. Great times, great memories. We are already planning our next visit!

Great trip to Gracianna

By Michael W |

Fantastic visit to Gracianna. Fernando was extremely personable and went out of his way to make our visit a great experience. Would highly recommend making it a stop on your tour of the area to taste their wines. Went home with both the Rose and the Zinfandel.

Lovely Wines

By journeybabe65 |

Beautiful small, boutique winery located in West County. Nice view. Friendly staff. The wines were very good. I would recommend bringing some type of food as they do not offer any with the tasting.

Beautiful Setting, Wonderful People, Amazing Wines

By ShaunRalston |

Gracianna Winery is a true gem in Sonoma County. From the moment we arrived, the staff welcomed us with kindness and genuine hospitality, making us feel like old friends. The setting is absolutely beautiful; peaceful, elegant, and perfect for lingering with a glass in hand. The wines are outstanding (across the board) with the Pinot and Zinfandel standing out as favorites. This isn’t just a tasting, it’s an experience you’ll want to return to again and again. Highly Recommend.

Grateful to Have Experienced Gracianna

By Paula C |

Gracianna Winery is a lovely, family-owned and operated vineyard in the Russian River Valley. It was recommended to us by our VRBO host. The winery has a beautiful tasting room with a variety of seating options so you can choose your setting and choose your view. They also allow outside food, so we brought our own charcuterie. We were fortunate enough to arrive the day before their harvest. We were, therefore, among the last to see the grapes on the vines for this season. It was a special treat to walk in the vineyard, talk with the owner, and learn about the harvest process. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming and the hostess was incredibly friendly and personable. We loved hearing about the vineyard, how it got its start, why it is named Gracianna, why the wine label and other parts of the property feature a gift box, and more. And the wines were delicious too! It was a wonderful visit!

Another beautiful day at Graciana

By badmomdvwd |

The wines are some of the best!
Love the scenery and having Trini come spend time telling stories.
Fernando has great insight and information on the wines and vineyards.

Amazing stay in the Gracinna loft.

By Stephanie R |

What an amazing way to spend our 10 yr anniversary! We stayed in the loft right above the beautiful tasting room for 2 nights. The place is spectacular, so peaceful and comfortable. Oh yea, the wine was also amazing.. Definitely recommend staying overnight.

Rainy day visit

By Mike S |

We hit Gracianna on a rainy day and Trini welcomed us into his home instead of the tasting room.....we had a great time talking about all the cool features of his home and got to meet on a personal level. Very impressed. Oh ya...and the wine was fantastic!

outstanding

By AMACConsultingLLC |

Great place, excellent wine, fantastic people. We became wine club members and we will be back. Thanks.

Gracious hosts and excellent wines at Gracianna!!

By travelfamily1 |

I’ve been a Gracianna member for years because I’ve loved their wines and the story behind their wines, but this was my very first time visiting the winery and it completely exceeded my expectations. Fernando and Lafayette were as warm, kind, and accommodating as could be, making the experience feel very special from start to finish. The setting is beautiful, the hospitality unmatched, and of course, the wines are outstanding. I’m even more excited to see my medallion in the vines on my next visit!!

Disappointing Pickup Party

By fabvetmom |

We purposely went during the "Pickup Party" dates as we usually are unable to attend for most of our clubs. When we arrived, there was almost no one there. There was no music, only one server and only one other occupied table. We also were unable to taste most of the wines on your list. Not really a "party" at all.
Our last visit had a live guitarist, both Trini and his wife and Ferando. It was a lovely visit. This one did not compare at all.

Great stop in Russian River area

By TGOCalifornia |

This is a lovely spot, really nice people, and the best Pinots! Always a nice stop on our visits to the area.

Best experience!!

By Stacy D |

I had some friends visiting from out of town and I took them to Gracianna for a good ole Sonoma county wine tasting experience . Everyone at the winery was so personable and inviting - so much so that we spent several hours there!. It honestly felt like a family get together as they are just so darn nice there!
The fact that the wine is superb is definitely the icing on the cake. CANNOT SAY ENOUGH WONDERFUL THINGS about the wine, the people and the setting.....

Always Incredible! Amazing wines and people!

By Paul Franklin |

We always enjoy our time at Gracianna, it is truly a “magical” place! The wines are exquisite and the people are amazing. Fernando and Lafayette are just two of the nicest, attentive and knowledgeable people we have met in wine country. It’s truly a 10 out of 10 experience! I give it our highest recommendation.

Gorgeous, private, peaceful, special.

By Gabriella B |

If you’re looking for an immersive, peaceful, private, quality winery stay- look no further. This place was paradise. Slightly off the beaten paths of Napa and Sonoma (in the best way possible), Trini and his team (shout out Dolores) made us feel right at home in beautiful Headlesburg. Not only is Graciana a top rated winery, but the surrounding wineries and downtown are amazing! Trini and Lisa go above and beyond to share this state of the art property with you- take advantage of it! You’ll gasp in awe, then take a deep breath when you see this property.

A Wonderful Way to End Our Afternoon in Healdsburg

My husband and I had a wonderful experience last month at Gracianna Winery. It was a return visit to this beautiful winery, and I'm sure we'll be back when we travel to the Napa area. All of the staff is so helpful and friendly, and their pinot noirs and zinfandels are delicious!

Beautiful day Gracianna Winery

By NossyB |

My wife and I had an amazing time at Gracianna Winery. The grounds were beutiful, the staff was super friendly and the one of the owners even stopped by to chat with us. We normally try to visit a number of wineries when we do our wine tasting but it was so nice here we had a Charcuterie board and wine and stayed for quite a bit. Wine is great and service was great. Definitely recommend this place!

Great getaway!

By Peter U |

My fiance stayed above the tasting room and loved it! Very peaceful and Trini along with all the staff were so welcoming!

Relaxing Winery

By michaelisfamily |

This place along the Russian River is beautiful. A relaxing place to bring a picnic and taste some truly great wines. The staff is very accommodating and is eager to answer any questions.

Amazing staff, experience, and of course wine

By Tibbi D |

Don't miss Gracianna. The staff are thoughtful, caring and passionate. The location is beautiful and the wine is amazing. This was my first visit and I immediately signed up to be part of the wine club - it's that good!

Great autumn Saturday afternoon with wine tasting, cheeses, prosciutto, crackers as wellas great vineyard colors! :)

Great autumn Saturday afternoon with wine tasting, cheeses, prosciutto, crackers as wellas great vineyard colors! :)

Small slice of heaven! Where the angels come on their day off for a great glass of wine and conversation.

By Michael M |

Fantastic experience! Awesome wine, gracious host, beautiful slice of heaven along the wine road. It was a nice small intimate place, absolutely worth the stop!

Beautiful location, Delicious wine

By Bob Potter |

Gracianna is a friendly family run operation with superb wines set in a beautiful location. Reservations are preferred but not required. We just dropped in and were accommodated. After tasting several tasty pinots and zinfandels, we became medallion members.

wonderful stay in Sonoma

By lanaroo |

We absolutely loved Gracianna Winery. Our stay was peaceful and beautiful. The wine is fantastic and the hosts were so gracious and helpful. We cannot wait to go back.

Wonderful wines, awesome experience

By Jeff L |

We crashed a closed tasting by accident but were welcomed with incredible hospitality and fabulous wines. In spite of our faux Paul we were treated like royalty.

Wedding Welcome Party at Gracianna

By Sara A |

We hosted an absolutely wonderful "welcome wine tasting" for our family & friends at Gracianna before getting married nearby in Healdsburg. Gracianna truly went above and beyond. Lisa and Fernando made planning so easy. During the event, the Gracianna team graciously served wine, entertained our guests, and led tours around the property. They even helped us clean up when we had to rush off to the wedding rehearsal and our guests weren't ready to leave!

If anyone else is looking to host a large group wine tasting or welcome party, I couldn't recommend Gracianna enough. I had trouble finding a vineyard in the area that would host a large group without being cost prohibitive and am so grateful to have found Gracianna!

Gracianna Tasting Experience

By floal0529 |

Moment you walked in you feel the warm welcome. Amazing Owner and Staff! Their wines are great. Very relaxing place. If we have a choice we would like to stay for the whole day. I extremely recommend to visit. We will for sure be back more often.

WONDERFUL "GIFT" to enjoy

By Maps308407 |

what a wonderful experience we had at Gracianna Winery. Their kind, caring environment was so inviting. We spoke with the 'family' and they shared the winery story. Such a pleasant experience. The wine is fabulous and we all went home with some. Definitely would love to visit again.

Wonderful spot for an afternoon

By TGOCalifornia |

We stop at Gracianna whenever we are in Healdsburg. All the wines are very nice, and we particularly enjoy the Pinots. Owners and staff are friendly and casual. Sitting outside for a tasting on their patio is wonderful in the spring.

The Grapes of Gracianna are Blessed - Yeee Haaaw

By dahnthemahn |

Howdy y’all. We are SF natives who took a weekend trip to Healdsburg and lined up a tasting at Gracianna. In the future, we’ll be taking trips to Gracianna and maybe lining up activities in Healdsburg. That the wine is great (we stocked up) is icing on the cake. We spent several hours hanging out with Lisa, the Trinis, Fernando, et al., and the atmosphere they’ve created is what sets Gracianna apart for us. It is immediately evident that they all pride themselves not only on their excellent Pinots and Zins (to name a few), but really making their patrons’ experiences memorable. We had such a great time hanging out, enjoying the wine, and talking about art, our expanding hat collections, and the turning radio of tractors (thanks, Trini), among many other topics. Suffice it to say, we will be back!

Wonderful stay at the loft

By blondytree |

We had a wonderful stay at Gracianna’s loft. What a treat!! The views are stunning from every window, the kitchen is well appointed, and the bed was comfortable. The two outdoor sitting areas are great with one being covered and one not. We’ve been visiting Healdsburg for over 10 years now and we love being able to cook our own food at home and enjoy a nice bottle of wine in the evenings. The restaurants in Healdsburg is just a short drive away if that’s your thing. The Gracianna tasting room is closed in March but we were still able to purchase bottles (two Pinot wire, and a Chardonnay), which was great. There is a Maine coon cat named Riki, but we only gazed at each other from far. I did get to meet the dog though who is very sweet. We would definitely stay here again and look forward to future tastings.

Winery hospitality at it's finest

By Lisa S |

Gracianna is truly a beautiful place to stay. We were only there a few nights, but it was so relaxing and enjoyable. Trini is such a friendly and welcoming host. Trini and his staff shared great local recommendations for both food and fun. We would definitely stay here shaking next time we are in the area.

By Phil J |

The service, story telling, vineyard view and of course, the wines, were all amazing.

We became members and Leslie and I look forward to visiting again.

Best way to end trip

By markcR3109EE |

Amazing staff and wines. Both are over the top - staff and family gracious and knowledgeable, wine delicious. We are looking forward to returning!

Lovely, as Always

By jon_kilcrease |

Gracianna is always a pleasure. Engagements with the family, staff, and locale are lovely. Visits feel like a bit like home. And superb wines!

Great winery

By Thomas G |

Excellent tasting wine! Excellent host. Everyone was so friendly. Such. Beautiful scenery. April is such a great time to visit

Memorable Tasting experience.

By TheToadRidesAgain |

We had a wonderful experience at Gracianna Winery. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Our server even changed up the tasting menu to suite my preference for red wines. Wow! The zinfandel was really nice and bold and the cab was fantastic. There is a nice peaceful walk along the vineyards down towards the Russian River that we were able to enjoy. My server made sure that I had some wine in my glass to take along on our stroll. We were not rushed during the tasting at all and felt very welcome during our visit. This is how a tasting experience should be.

Gracianna Winery - an exceptional experience!

By 13susanmar |

Our visit to Gracianna Winery was an extraordinary experience that I won't forget! Our plans were a bit last minute and when I called the winery to see if they could fit us in they were exceptionally accommodating and welcoming. Lafayette was so inviting on the phone and said he was looking forward to seeing us and the two dogs we brought with us (a very dog friendly place). The setting is beautiful and peaceful and you immediately feel gratitude, which is their mantra. The wine was delicious and we were lucky to have a side by side tasting at one point which was a special treat for me. You could really appreciate the nuanced differences. The owner, Trini Amador, was one of the most interesting, delightful, engaging people I have ever met. He sat with us for awhile and we had a wonderful conversation. He told us his story and was very interested in hearing our stories. He is worth the experience of the visit alone, but don't fret, you will be blessed with delicious wine as well! I can't wait to return and share this special place with friends. On a closing note, I scored major points with my friend for finding this place. You could say we have been a bit competitive since our college days and I have gratitude that this fantastic experience put me ahead :)

Great wines with top notch hospitality!

By Roihatul P |

This was my 2nd time visiting this beautiful winery. Their great wines and the staff top notch hospitality always a highlight.
Would love to come back again someday, maybe spend a weekend on their loft above the tasting room 👍

Wonderful experience

By Simone R |

This is by far one of the most intimate and hospitable tastings that I have been to. The team was incredible, especially Trini and Simone. Such a special experience and I can’t wait to go back.

Amazing Hospitality!

By Evan L |

Such an amazing story and we got to meet the owners! Beyond accommodating and we had such a lovely time! The tasting room is fun and we couldn't recommend it highly enough

One of the best small winerys in the area.

By Geoff M |

This is the very definition of a family winery. The family is literally coming out to meet you! Great wine...great views...great stories from the staff. We would happily go back.

Awesome stay at Gracianna Winery Farm Loft!

By Donita256 |

We had a four night stay at Gracianna Winery Farm Loft in April 2024 and it was fabulous! Owners Trini and Lisa were gracious, and Fernando and Lafayette were so much fun to hang out with in the wine tasting area! The loft was spacious and extremely comfortable, as well as stylish. The wine was absolutely magnificent and we learned a lot about how it was produced. We plan to visit again!

Must visit Graciana!

By Heidi K |

Forget Napa, Sonoma is where it’s at! Especially Graciana Vineyard. We stay above the tasting room in the gorgeous apartment was amazing! The wines are delicious and Trini and Lisa are amazing hosts - they made me feel so welcome and like a part of the family. I cannot wait to go back! Also, the book that Trini wrote titled “Graciana” is a wonderful read. Highly recommend!

Good wine, nice atmosphere

By Pamela J |

We really liked the tasting. There were some wineries where the atmosphere and the people were outstanding, but this winery was very good. Their Chardonnay was magnificent.

Great Westside Road winery!

By Culture824955 |

Wonderful experience and wines. The people there are so warm and friendly. They are so welcoming, and even brought a dish with some water for our dog.

Amazing experience.

By TIFFANY F |

Trini was an amazing host. Opened his home and shared all of the amazing treasures inside. Wine is fabulous and can’t wait to return.

A Lovely Experience: Gracianna Family Welcomes You!

By Sue M |

Gracianna is the most welcoming and thoughtful winery I have ever visited. The staff genuinely care for those who come to taste and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. It is more like a family welcome than a commercial endeavor. Their core value for gratitude shine through in all that they do. The wines are all top shelf, no matter your favorite, you will love each taste.

Warm welcome!

By Patrick L |

The group experience and knowledge shared by Gracianna's staff about wine making and the vineyards was open, educational and interesting.

Great Getaway!

By Curiosity54776638452 |

We did the wine tasting and were delightfully entertained by the staff and owner. The wine was excellent (Congratulations on being awarded the top prize for red wines!). We will come back to visit your beautiful winery with a fantastic line of wines.

Time with my daughter- home for the summer from China

By jacwaugh |

We had a wonderful experience. We accidentally went to the family home entrance which has a beautiful door, and the home owner graciously invited us in to see the kitchen area of their home. We glanced into the amazing wine cellar. Then we had our tasting overlooking the vineyard. Beautiful day and delicious wines. My daughter and I will be back.

Great experience

By nray102 |

I stayed in the loft at Gracianna! The owners were very friendly and welcoming! The wine was delicious! Great local recommendations! Would absolutely recommend this place for a nice relaxing trip!

Wonderful experience in the Russian River Valley

By steverK2122CR |

We've been big fans of the Healdsburg area for years and recently discovered a real treasure in Gracianna Winery. The entire staff, and owners, are so welcoming and friendly, treating their guests like family. The best part, the wines are all exceptional and of high quality. I would highly recommend putting Gracianna Winery on your next list of stops while in the Healdsburg area. This is a smaller, boutique style winery that exceeds expectation. You will not be disappointed.

Tucked Away Perfection

By ben t |

We did the Paddle/Pedal tour and got a private tasting experience. Stunning views, very good wine and service. The manager was very knowledgeable and friendly.

Magical Memory

By Kathleen C |

We had the most wonderful spontaneous experience and loved the time we spent with the friendliest staff as well as Trini. Loved the emphasis on gratitude! :-)

What a gem!!

By Ely T |

Beautiful setting, very friendly staff, excellent wine (we especially loved the Pinot and the Malbec, got a few bottles, too)

Will definitely be returning!

By Marnie C |

Visited during a college friends reunion weekend. Couldn’t have dreamed of a better experience.! Not only was the wine exceptional, Lafayette went out of his way to provide an enjoyable and informative experience. We all left with a better understanding of the winemaking process and a new found love of Chardonnay and Merlot. Would highly recommend the 2022 Resilience Pinot Noir. A MUST next time you’re in Russian River Valley! Thanks for all your time and expertise, Lafayette!

Gracianna must visit.

By luvlife437 |

We had the best experience staying at Gracianna. They have a wonderful loft with kitchen in a beautiful quiet setting. This is our second year staying and we look forward to our 3rd in 2024. If you can't stay then go for a tasting! Fernando, Lafayette and Trini and Lisa are the best hosts. Their wine speaks for itself! FANTASTIC and just a wonderful relaxed atmosphere, definite must if you are visiting Healdsburg!

Welcoming and kind always

By robertoC2738JR |

We were introduced to this winery last year and immediately fell in love. Everybody is very welcoming and personable. The owners treat you like family and really show you how appreciative they are of each and every visitor they have. It is an amazing experience and, not to mention, excellent wine!

Amazing winery and guesthouse

By Alison Q |

We actually stayed at the guesthouse on the vineyard and it was amazing!

Trini and Lisa are fantastic hosts. The day we arrived it was raining. They invited us do a tasting in their home when our room was being made ready. They also have delicious wine!

I would encourage anyone to stop by Gracianna winery and have a tasting and buy some delicious wine and I would highly encourage anyone who has a couple of days or more to stay there as their base to explore wine country!

Top shelf experience!!

By Kimberly A |

Our experience at Gracianna winery was by far one of the best experiences we had when visiting this area. We were treated like family, the wine was amazing and the attention was amazing!! It was wonderful to meet Trini and going to Gracianna was absolutely a highlight of our trip. Thank you for the memories Gracianna!!!
Sal and Kim Ambrosino

Relaxing Retreat

By Rae Doner |

What a great find! Gracianna is a beautiful spot and was exactly the relaxing retreat we were looking for. Thank you for the lovely experience and delicious wine. Fernando was really friendly and helpful, and Trini and Lisa were great hosts. We would love to come back and visit again in the future.

Don't miss this winery

By Jon S |

This is not to be missed. You can walk through and even sample the Pinot grapes. The hospitality is superb! And the wines are distinct and memorable. We will be back for sure.

Peaceful beautiful winery setting

By Sharon W |

Exceptional! The owners, Trini & Lisa, along with their staff were very friendly, responsive and helpful. They went the second mile with their service and care. Highly recommend not only their loft for your stay but also the winery.

Gracianna winery reveiw

By robertgeiss |

Very good wines, very friendly wine bar hosts and very gracious owners. Great experience! Wait- what is this? Reviews have to be at least one hundred characters? Is this enough?

Warm, welcoming, Delicious!!!

By Michele S |

Attending a wine maker’s dinner at Gracianna is like visiting family, only better. From the greeting as we entered the parking area, to the warm hugs goodbye at the end of the evening, everyone was down to earth, fun, and lovely. The wine was outstanding - my favorites are the Resilience Pinot and the unsurpassed Cabernet (that’s not the name, just how I feel about it).
Our first time there, you could tell that long and deep relationships had been formed with many other guests.
In addition, the home/winery is fabulous and grounds are beautiful!

I highly recommend you make plans to visit Gracianna, even if it’s out of your way, in your visit to Wine County - or just make it your destination, you’ll be glad you did!!!

Hidden Gem in Healdsburg – Warm, Welcoming, and Wonderful Wines

By Ed Y |

We recently visited Graciana Winery in Healdsburg and had an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the warm, welcoming atmosphere—it truly felt like stepping into a family gathering.

The wines were outstanding—beautifully crafted and full of character. Each pour came with a story, and the passion behind the winemaking really shone through. But what made the visit truly special were the people. The staff were not only knowledgeable, but also genuinely kind and engaging, making the entire tasting feel personal and relaxed.

What stood out most was the authentic family feel. Graciana isn’t just a winery—it’s a heartfelt experience. You can sense the care and pride that goes into every detail, from the wine to the setting to the hospitality. We left with a few bottles and even more memories.

Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy amazing wine in a setting that feels like home.

Great small winery in Sonoma County

By highwaytaz2022 |

Great wines, great location and fantastic people. We always feel like family when we visit. Very friendly staff with great wines. A must stop if you travel through Sonoma County and you enjoy wine.

Intimate Setting With Delicious Wine

By Amy G |

My visit to Graciana Vineyard was wonderful. The wine was top notch - my favorites were the chardonnay and the merlot. Simone and Laffy were wonderful hosts. This family run vineyard has a special vibe and curates an intimate wine tasting experience in a beautiful setting. Skip the bigger venues and put this place on your list of wine country visits. You won't be disappointed.

Absolutely Beautiful

By mishele13 |

My husband and I can't say enough about this lovely, quaint winery. The owners and the staff made us feel like family and took such great care of us. We stayed for 3 nights in their loft above the tasting room and it was simply the best. We can't wait to come back :)

pop in tasting!

By Gina H |

Beautiful laid back property! the staff was amazing! We were able to meet the owner, Trini and gave us peek of his house and some history behind everything. The wines were amazing as well!

A must visit!

By jferrauilo |

Gracianna was beautiful and had some of the best wine we’ve ever had! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and that is mostly thanks to the amazing owners and workers there. 10/10 experience, we cannot wait to come back.

A Must-Visit Winery!

By Jill J |

What an incredible experience! The views were amazing, the wine outstanding, our attendant welcoming and attentive, and the owners even spent time with us, making it a very personal and memorable visit. I highly recommend this winery. A favorite from our trip!

You can’t get any better than this!

By Jeanne F |

A perfect choice for a Healdsburg get away. Cosy spot overlooking the vineyards. Large tasteful studio apt has everything you need. Perfect location— away from the hubbub of town, but close enough to pop in for great food and entertainment. During our mid week stay we practically had the winery to ourselves. Fernando is gracious and entertaining, treating you to wine, recommendations and stories. Book this place— you won’t regret it!

One of the Best

By samten2023 |

Great wines, awesome staff, oh and the owners, Trini and Lisa, truly wonderful people. Easily one of he top Sonoma County wineries.

Great wines and wonderful people

By mala20232023 |

My husband and I luckily drove by Gracianna and decided to try a wine tasting. Not only was the wine delicious and flavorful but the owners were kind and welcoming hosts. We highly recommend stopping by and spending the afternoon sipping wine on their beautiful patio.

Delightful tasting & conversation with Fernando

By Ts_Travel_Adventures |

From the first hello, we received a very warm, sincere welcome. Gracianna tasting with Fernando was delightful. Reflective conversation about life and what’s important.
He shared the history of the wine and the motto:
Wine for those who have something to be grateful for.

A special stop

By Ken C |

A very special stop along the way. The hospitality was wonderful, and we enjoyed meeting the team. Highly recommended.

Excellent wine, beautiful area, and amazing people!

By Alan B |

Gracianna Winery is somewhere my wife and I will keep coming back to over and over! Our experience with Trini, Lisa, Fernando, and Lafayette was amazing! Trini and Lisa are great hosts and are very welcoming and generous, and Fernando and Laf are fun to talk to and very helpful! There is a lot of history behind Gracianna Winery that is fun to learn about, and going there, you will feel like part of the family! Highly recommend Gracianna Winery not just for the wine, but for the amazing experience!!!

The Perfect Tasting Experience

By btjp007 |

We were seated at the covered bar overlooking the vineyard. Fernando, the host, was very friendly & informative. The wines were excellent. We had a great time. I will definitely go back and highly recommend Gracianna.

A Wonderful Experience at Gracianna Winery

By Neil D |

After 3 days of bike riding, I was happy to stop at Gracianna Winery. However, the VIP treatment, the wonderful variety of the wine tasting, the exceptional quality of the wine itself, as well as the warmth shown by the owner and employees were over the top.

Bravo Gracianna!

By elizabeth c |

Everything surpassed our expectations from the warm welcome and wine tasting to the fabulous accommodations. The vineyard views were from every window in the loft and the bed and furnishings were charming and comfortable.

Wonderful experience

By jgjohns |

We visited Gracianna Winery on a beautiful fall day for a private tasting and picnic lunch. The wines we tasted were all wonderful but hearing about the winery, exploring the vineyard, and tasting grapes right off the vine made it a high light of our trip to the Healdsburg area.

Wine tasting

By Lovewine1010 |

This winery was so inviting you feel part of the family. They are able to have small and larger gatherings. The wines are excellent.I prefer Ed’s but I really enjoyed their white wine also. The vineyard is beautiful. Friendly staff that is fantastic. Love this place

Lodge and Bunkhouse at Sea Ranch - A Gem!

By Heather H |

We rented out the Lodge and Bunkhouse at Sea Ranch for a family getaway and the house did not disappoint! It’s beautiful and with ocean views we instantly felt peaceful vacation vibes when we walked through the door. It’s a culinary lovers kitchen with all the gadgets - we had so much fun getting creative with pizzas in the pizza oven. An awesome perk!

We were minutes from walking to the beach where we felt like we got more hands on with Star fish and other sea creatures than at the aquarium. And our kids had fun riding bikes in the court. Sea Ranch is breathtaking, and this house is spectacular! We will be back!

All gift

By Benjamin W |

Lisa, Trini, and Delores are the perfect hosts. Their grounding in gratitude was on full display in their generosity of time, story, and life. Our time together was all gift.

Gracianna winery Airbnb apartment

By Karen D |

Greatly enjoyed our stay at the apartment above the tasting room. Spacious and comfortable loft space with kitchen, living area and king size bed. Beautiful views of surrounding vineyards, and we were fortunate enough to be able to walk with our host Lisa and her sweet dog every morning we were there, due to our early rising habit. Trini, Lisa’s husband was also able to join us our last morning. We arrived late our first day after the tasting room had closed and on a day with a high of 102. Hosts had considerately turned the air conditioning on before we arrived so apartment was nice and cool.
Had a tasting of the wines in the delightful tasting room /patio. Wines were lovely. The attention the staff ( and owners) lavish on the guests in the tasting room is well above what you will see in many wineries.

A Unique Find

By Christine |

Gracianna was a unique find in an area dominated by larger labels. We were made to feel comfortable and never pressured to purchase. Our host Fernando genuinely seemed interested in the wines and welcomed any and all of our questions. The fan favorite in our group was the Sauvignon blanc— definitely a tropical explosion! We all left with a bottle or two. Definitely give this winery a visit if you’re looking for something a little different! Thanks for your hospitality, Gracianna!

Check out this great boutique winery!

By Emily D |

Beautiful boutique winery, really enjoyed each wine we tried. Many deep sophisticated flavors in the Pinot Noirs. My wife love the chardonnay. Joined the club too!!

Delicious wine and wonderful visit

By Tom M |

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Gracianna.We sat outside on a beautiful morning. Lafayette was an informed, intuitive server giving us all plenty of time to enjoy the wines. He gave us wine grapes to taste and directed us to an art exhibit at the end of the property. The wine was so good that we joined the wine club!
Gracianna will definitely be number one the next time we return to Healdsburg!

Fun and great people and tasty wine!

By Tim R |

We had a very fun stop at Gracianna Winery. Lafayette and Fernando are the ultimate hosts. Be sure to add them to your list!

Lovely - a perfect day!

By Renee |

We have been members of Gracianna for several years and have attended several of their events. In addition, we have brought friends for wine tastings and recently, included a picnic. Each and every time we are delighted with our experience - tasting delicious, award winning wines, overlooking vineyards in a peaceful environment! Terrific employees and the owners, ever present. We look forward to many years more and feel so fortunate to have access to this amazing winery family.

Run, don’t walk!

By Maggie P |

What a beautiful day we had at Gracianna! The owners, Trini and Lisa, along with the vintner and others really made our visit special, sharing about the winery’s history and their artful inspiration based upon gratitude. The wine tasting was truly fantastic! Thank you so much for providing the highlight of our trip!

The folks at Gracianna make you feel like family!

By Dream763068 |

We've visited the folks at Gracianna several times and each time the owners and tasting room folks make us feel like family. They are the most friendly and welcoming group that make us feel special every time. Thank you all for another wonderful experience with your delicious award-winning wines.

Relaxation in the Mercedes Riverblock

By scottwalker22 |

Fernando has always been a very gracious host. He and the rest of the staff go out of their way to make your visit what YOU want it to be and are not tied to their own agenda. The wines have always been consistently good and I like the fact that Trini is experimenting w/ new varietals. Trini and Lisa always make a point of coming by to say hello but are very aware not to interrupt the experience you are having with your friends! I highly recommend this gem tucked away in the RRV. Small, intimate and 1st class all the way.

Gracianna feels like family

By GaryNoCalAdventurer |

We love going to Gracianna, where the entire team, from Lisa and Trini, to Fernando, Lafayette and Carson all make us feel like we are not visiting a winery, but have come back to the family home. So welcoming and warm. And the wines are drinking especially spectacularly right now. Bacigalupi Pinot all day for me, but they were all wonderful.

Don"t miss this winery!

By Jennifer D |

Amazing day with delicious wines. We stuck to Sauv Blanc and Chard and they did not disappoint. This is a must visit winery in Healdsburg.

Wonderful Apartment and Tasting

By Passenger26813383276 |

We loved our stay at Gracianna. We had a tasting before we checked in and we were well taken care of both at the tasting and throughout our stay. Their apartment is beautiful and clean and we enjoyed sitting in the alcove for our morning tea and looking out over the vines. Gracianna is perfectly located among the many wineries on Westside Road, but also close to Healdsburg.

Good times!

By Nicky R |

We visited last week with my wife, her cousin and her husband. The property was beautiful and the wine was incredible. This was by far the most fun I have had visiting a winery. The owners have put their heart and souls into this winery and it shows.

Perfect spot!

By Dusty K |

Awesome spot, cute, vineyards are right there, and staff is very informative and friendly. The 23 Zin is the best I have ever had!

Don't miss this place!

By Craig F |

My favorite winery to visit because it's by far the most personal experience. I used to live in SF and went quite often, in fact when they were building the tasting room 15 years ago or so I was a regular and joined the wine club.

Each time I would bring new people there they'd blown away by the experience. It's basically the polar opposite of some of the more commercial wineries, and most people don't know places like this exist. It's a winery with a soul. And a beautiful story with amazing owners and stakeholders.

I moved away during Covid and went back recently. I'm happy to report it's still the same. I met one of the stakeholders, Fernando on this visit and he made us feel right at home like an old friend. The visit was the highlight of our trip and renewed my love for Gracianna. I plan on sending gifts of wine from there to introduce people to this hidden gem as between the quality of the wine, the small batched and feeling of being in the know, and the amazing people its really easy to fall in love!

An exceptional winery that will amaze your senses and make you feel a part of the family!

By Greg T |

An Amazing winery with a great atmosphere. Some of the best wine in the valley! A must stop! Actually, make it your first stop!

Special Attention

By Deanna P |

Our visit turned out special with attention from owner, information about not just wine but living life with thankfulness in mind. We will definitely visit again when we are in the area. We look forward to sharing our wine purchased with all of our friends and family and also trying some of the recipes in the book we picked up. Trini, thank you for the tour - Rod is reading your book first, then will give to me. Many blessings to you and your family!

Amazing vibes and vines!

By Elise K |

This winery is an amazingly small family run business with a local vibe. The family who owns the winery treats you like family when you arrive, they give you a tour of their house and property and really live their mission of being grateful for all the important things in life. Love that mission and will make sure I’m grateful every time I drink from their collection. Highly recommend the experience and of course, the delicious and well made wines!

Great place to relax and recharge

By Michael S |

Really great place to stay if you need a great getaway! The place is great, very tasteful, and so comfy. Really great natural light too!
Absolutely wonderful place to relax and recharge!

Great wine with a view

By danielle l |

Such a lovely family owned winery. The tasting was excellent and the views from the patio overlooks the vines. We had such a great time!

Phenomenal wine in a welcoming and gorgeous place.

By Katherine T |

My friend and I enjoyed a relaxing Monday afternoon at Gracianna, graciously served by Dolores. We were made to feel so welcome in this beautiful place. As for the wine, it is not hyperbole to say it is phenomenal. My tasting buddy commented that it was the first time she ever visited a winery and loved every single wine. Treat yourself to an afternoon on the "miracle mile" of pinot noir at Gracianna.

Authentic wine country!

By CeeCeeAtl |

Fabulous hosts! Welcoming and informative. Fernando was helpful, thoughtful and relaxed. We felt like it was our house for a time! Highly recommend for an authentic wine country experience! Wine is amazing, too. Cheers!

Perfect

By 462terry |

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Gracianna Winery. The wine was wonderful, and the hospitality was first rate. The setting was beautiful. I had told lots of people about the visit and I highly recommend it.

A special place

Gracianna is a gem of a winery and I highly recommend you include this on a visit to the Russian River Valley. We wanted to try a small family-owned vineyard for our visit to Sonoma and, after some research, decided to try Grancianna. Thanks to a road detour we were a little late to our scheduled tasting but we were graciously greeted by Hannah and encouraged to select a table for our tasting. Hannah was lovely and told us the family’s history and expertly explained the wines during our tasting. All of the wines we tried were delicious so much so we not only bought some bottles but we also joined the club and are looking forward to our first shipment. We also had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with Lisa. Gracianna is a special place; it’s beautiful and peaceful and the wines are top notch. We are thrilled to support this small family-owned and operated winery.

Fun Wine Tasting

By TGOCalifornia |

Great place to stop by on a rainy afternoon. Place was hopping, lots of fun. Really, really good wines.

Great Experience with a Warm & Knowledgeable Crew

By Antonia W |

Great place to celebrate a birthday - beautiful views, incredible wine, and a fantastic crew. Omar, Fernando & Lafayette really brought our experience to life and helped us navigate a tasting with ease, knowledge, and good vibes. I’m glad I signed up for a membership and look forward to returning many more times in the future with family and friends.

A gem of a place and delicious wines!!!

By BobPag |

A buddy of mine introduced me to Gracianno wines a few months ago. So, on our recent trip to San Fran, my wife and I took the drive to a few wineries and Gracianno was on our list. We did not have a reservation, but nonetheless on our arrival we were greated like family by Fernando who took us through tastings of 8 different wines. All were outstanding, especially the Westside Pinot. We bought several bottles which survived the trip back to Florida in our luggage. ,We also were able to walk through the vineyards, and interestingly their wine club members have medallions with their family names hanging on the vines! Put this place on your list for a visit, and by all means try some of their delicious wines!! Bob and Ann

Perfect stay in an exceptionally charming winery

By ddhirsh |

Fabulous large loft studio on upper floor of the Gracianna Winery tasting room - very cozy and comfortable with great vineyard views from each window. Very responsive hosts that check in with guests and make sure all needs are met - loved the location - proximity to Healdsburg and numerous surrounding wineries and tasting rooms - will definitely stay here again.

Grateful

By Madison S |

Everyone was so welcoming, amazing and the wine was delicious , the weather was perfect. It was was amazing celebrating our birthdays together.

Great wine, better people, and overall such a fun atmosphere!

By Nicole |

My family and I had such a fun time at Graciana Winery. We luckily stumbled upon Graciana while driving through Healdsburg and I’m so happy that we did. The wine was wonderful but the people were even better! Both Fernando and Lafayette were so knowledgeable, along with the owner. It’s always refreshing to have nice conversation with strangers, learn something new, sip great wine, and enjoy beautiful views. Definitely recommend if you are in the area - can’t wait to come back!

Incredible Experience

By dmprice123 |

Our team had an incredible and memorable experience. We loved our personal tour of the vineyard and the private tour of the owner Trini's house. Great wine and even better people

Glorious place & wonderful experience

By Janice H |

We adored our stay in the loft. It was one of the most beautiful and comfortable Airbnb experiences I've had and we'd love to come and stay again, especially when the tasting room is open. We had the best bottle of Pinot Noir ('22) of our wine country stay from their vineyard.

Sonoma experience

By Deborah L |

Amazing wine (10/10), wonderful staff.. Fernando and Lafayette were the best! Trini and Lisa were gracious hosts and love meeting their guests. We had a wonderful stay in their beautiful farm loft for several days. Would definitely book again!

Love Gracianna and the Amadors!

By Trudy R |

We've been Medallion Club members since our first visit a few years ago. We love having the excuse to make the drive to Gracianna to pick up our wines (versus having them shipped), tasting the latest wine releases, and seeing Trini & Lisa and their friendly crew! Every guest we've taken has become a club member too. If no one else can make the journey with us, we make our own adventure of the day. Did I mention the wine is superb?!

New To Wine Country

By Molly S |

The team at Gracianna Winery is lovely! They were so friendly and approachable for us wine lover newbies. We really enjoyed our tasting, learning more about the family history and strolling around the beautiful property.

Another Wonderful Visit to Gracianna Winery

By John R |

We enjoyed a lovely afternoon at Gracianna Winery. Our host was Fernando accompanied by Dolores. Fernando is very knowledgeable about all things Gracianna and he is such a delight. We tasted a variety of wines that were absolutely spectacular. Our favorite was the Mercedes Riverblock Estate Pinot Noir.

Most Grateful for Young Diplomats Club visit to Gracianna

By Sandrine S |

Gracianna was above gracious to arrange a memorable wine tasting experience in their estate vineyard for the San Francisco Young Diplomats Club. Gracianna wines will be even more precious to us, sharing these great moments together in the estate vineyard. The set up is also truly amazing to arrange a picnic.
Highly recommend Gracianna for their amazing wines, and outstanding hospitality.

The best winery experience

By nsargsyan |

Thank you to Lafayette for making this the most memorable winery experience! There are hundreds of wineries in Sonoma county, and you can easily get overwhelmed when planning on which ones to visit. Start your day at Gracianna Winery because you likely won’t need to head anywhere after. The wine was delicious and the views stunning. Above all, the people working here make you feel like a valued guest. Looking forward to coming back!

Grateful for Gracianna-You'll be, too!

By Don S |

Genuine hospitality is a rare treasure these days, yet Gracianna goes beyond warm hospitality to that of HYGGE, the Danish word for the feeling of comfort, warmth and contentment. Trini, Lisa, Trini Jr., Lafayette and Fernando know how to welcome warmly and provide a wine experience unparalleled in any wine region. The wines are superb-we are particularly partial to the Mercedes Block Pinot Noir and the Stagecoach Cab-but, the Zinfandel and Merlot are stellar as well. Real conversation with the winemaker is a key part of the experience in the beauty of the vineyard. We feel like a part of the Gracianna family (like distant prodigal cousins:) who are welcomed home with open arms, full glasses and beautiful landscapes.

Worth the Visit

By Robyn H |

While in wine country do not over look a visit to Gracianna Winery! It is worth the visit. My husband, son and I stopped by for a tasting and left as a member to the wine club! The wine is excellent and the team is just as excellent. I have had several memberships to wine clubs overt the years - I have never felt like I have been appreciated as much as the Gracianna team - I received my first shipment last week - cracked open the Zinfandel and remembered how amazing the wine is - do not miss this one!

Favorite winery!!!

By Rosemary B |

We flew down from Seattle to spend a few days in beautiful Healdsburg. Friends recommending signing up here for the private tour and tasting. Wow! It ended up being the highlight of our trip. The owners Trini and Lisa, as well as their son Trini Jr, made us feel so welcome! Trini had such interesting stories for us about their lovely home, and afterwards we tasted the most delicious wines. We ended up sitting under an olive tree for a couple of hours while Lisa kept coming by to chat and pour us more delicious wines! The Pinots were out of this world. We packed up and took home what we could, and joined the Wine Club. This place ended up being our favorite of all we visited!! Highly recommend!!

Happiness

By Great W |

Gracianna is amazing. I love ALL of their wines and I can’t say that for any other winery. I I’ve the people at Gracianna too. They are all great. 😊

Simply lovely and beautiful!

By Jenny S |

We just loved everything about this place! Small, cozy, gorgeous and delicious wine! Lafayette added so many personal touches to our tasting to make it special as we were celebrating a birthday! Defiantly worth the trip to this lovely vineyard! We joined the wine club!!

G is consistently a top quality tasting experience.

By FarAway22547708132 |

The continued growth in the outdoor , garden like patio area for tasting is noticed and appreciated.

Grape vines are restful and quieting. A grape vine covered arbor like I experienced occasionally, might be an easy future option. (I especially enjoyed one covered by Barbera vines, I forget where, not in Sonoma or Napa Co, but it made a huge temperature drop between enjoying performances of musician friends & tv personalities , & when retiring with them to the arbor between sets.)

A Winery to be Grateful for!

By Allen A |

We had the pleasure of staying at the loft Air B&B. Perfect location for us.
The Amadors are wonderful hosts as well as Fernando & Lafayette.
Everyone is so down to earth and friendly.
We loved the wine and hospitality thru our entire stay.

Serenity and wine

By 26oak |

This was our first experience with an Airbnb and if this is any indication of other properties then we will not be disappointed. What an adorable loft in a beautiful setting. This was a complete home away from home experience.
Everything was detailed and accurately described and promised. Communication was prompt, efficient, courteous and felt like we knew the owners personally. From the moment of booking to checkout, Trini, Lisa and Fernando communicated anytime we had a question. They even provided us with a cooler to use for our stay. Only disappointment is that we never had a chance to meet Trini personally as we had a busy itinerary. Wanted to bend his ear about music 🤗. If you want a serene setting and relaxed atmosphere where the hosts are concerned for your complete satisfaction then this is your place. We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to stay at their lovely property.
Best wishes and happiness always!

A Healdsburg must see and taste!

By gravesja |

The winery was exceptional. Great information, lovely varietals, and friendly, warm staff. Gratitude is paramount in this Russian River Winery.

Dog-Friendly Gracianna not to be missed!

By margaretbB3984CP |

We found Gracianna initially by happenstance--we were declined admittance by another nearby winery we were hoping to visit because our furry kid (aka Truffles) was not allowed. We stopped by to taste some wine and enjoy the day, and we stayed! Lisa was the perfect host and the wine was delicious!!! We shared our purchases and experience with family and friends--who also shared, and the rest is history. Everyone loves the wine, Lisa and Trini and, of course, the awesome staff....Fernando and Lafayette!

A gem

By Virginia H |

This is a very special family owed winery. From the moment you arrive you are treated as if you belong and everyone is extremely welcoming-in a genuine want to know you as a person kind of way. The setting and atmosphere are out of a story book and you feel as if you are not in this country. The wine is so good and the winemakers are extremely talented! I’m going to be subscribing to their wine delivery. Can’t get enough!

New Favorite Winery

By Pablo B |

Gracianna Winery offers a truly charming and intimate wine tasting experience. The family's passion for their vineyard is palpable, and it translates beautifully into their wines. The Bacigalupi Pinot Noir… my goodness, this Pinot Noir was exceptional. You can really taste the fruit and care that goes into each wine. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, making us feel right at home. It's a perfect spot for a relaxed afternoon enjoying good wine and conversation. I'd highly recommend Gracianna for anyone seeking a genuine and memorable winery visit.

Dont miss out on this place!

By Dalton W |

We had a great time at Gracianna! It was beautiful out sitting next to the vines. The staff took great care of us and the wines are fantastic!

Go! Hurry! NOW!

By Ashley G |

I cant express how happy we were that we found this place and booked our stay with them. Some highlights...the bed was super comfy, loved loved all the windows and crank handles (a texas girls dream), the wine, the grounds and the lovely lovely hosts and staff. The pictures do not do it justice.....GO STAY HERE and if you are a local you must stop by for some wine. It also appeared to be hot spot for bikers. :) Cheers

Gracianna was a highlight of our Sonoma trip

By Jessica C |

Lafayette was a wonderful host. He answered all of our questions so pleasantly and kept us well informed of every wine we tasted. We loved touring the grounds and even tasting a grape or two right off the vine. It was an unforgettable experience! So glad we made it to Gracianna and very happy our 2 purchased bottles made it home in our checked bag!

Thank you so much for the warm hospitality, the great tour, and delicious tasting at Gracianna! It was perfect!

Sincerely,
Jessica Chandler
