Bella Vineyards & Wine Caves

I had a flew friends fly out for my birthday. I had gotten some recommendations to hit Bella and it did NOT disappoint. We booked the private tour. I’m so glad we did. The first thing we were told was to not feel rushed. We were taken through the property with such care and passion. The wine was amazing. I included a ton of pictures. The property is gorgeous. My group couldn’t say enough great things. Can’t wait to come back. You won’t regret booking. Thanks for making my birthday trip so memorable.

I loved this visit to Bella! I’ve been twice before; it’s a favorite spot due to the small, family nature of it. It’s Sonoma County winemaking the way it should be… local, connected, fun (I.e., not stuffy and corporate).

This time around we took the tour, which I recommend if you want an intro into the process, or if you just want to know more about Bella Vineyards’ winemaking. You taste wine on the go throughout the tour, which I thought was a nice touch. Garrett hosted our tour and was excellent - willing to answer questions, have fun, and go with the vibe of the group. He was also very knowledgeable of the local wineries, restaurants, history, etc.

One bit of advice… you likely need a reservation to get the most out of your time. Sure, you may get to taste the wine without one, but you won’t have the same experience or attention (especially if they are busy).

One of our favorite vineyards in Healdsburg. A very relaxing vineyard with great wines and friendly staff. The tastings are held out on the main lawn picnic table and inside the wine caves. We had our tasting inside the wine cave followed by a glass of wine outside to listen to the live music and enjoy the spectacular views. The wood fire pizzas looked awesome. We will have to get one next time we come. Highly recommend this vineyard. Thank you for the awesome time.

Spectacular setting and landscape. Great wines with different options to choose from. A really nice experience. Loved the wine tasting menu.

Beautiful place. Friendly service. Awesome wines.

A relaxed and family friendly winery. Tastings are held out on the lawn with picnic tables. There were hula hoops and picnic maps available when I went, which my child loved. Managed to visit the wine caves and hike up the winery - spectacular views up the hill.

This winery was so cool. The caves are such a unique experience compared to other wineries in the area. Our tasting was held in the cave itself. Great atmosphere, better wine. Will definitely be back.

I've lived in Sonoma County for 30 years but have never been to Bella. This weekend we went to Bella because it was participating in the Dry Creek Valley Passport weekend. It was one of the best wineries we went to all weekend. Great wines, the staff were all super friendly, and the wines were delicious. Beautiful location with great local views. Will definitly be coming back.

Jackie did an amazing job deconstructing each wine and made us feel so welcomed and cared for during our visit today. We're from chilly Idaho and we felt blessed to have her guide us through the tasting as we basked in the sun. Ryan's work as a winemaker is second to none and chatting with him about everything from winemaking to sailing as the day drew to a close made for an extraordinary visit. Please relay our gratitude to Ryan and Jackie for a genuinely memorable experience. - David & Ann

Great Pinots in a cool setting! Jessica was a wonderful wine hostess. The Bella Late Harvest with peanut butter chocolate was delicious!

Highly recommend Bella Wine Caves! The atmosphere was nice and cool and the wine was absolutely incredible. We left with two bottles but probably should’ve got more. Garrett, our host, was so friendly and accommodating. He made our day! Thank you so much for having us.

One of my favorite CA wineries and maker of one of my favorite Zinfandels. A visit through the caves is always a treat and the staff is always warm and welcoming. Put this on your must-sees in Healdsburg.

Great wine, great atmosphere and friendly staff! The wine tasting is done in the cave and the ambiance is really nice. The wines were excellent, and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The grounds are so pretty with lots of seating to enjoy a glass of wine and some yummy chocolate. Definitely in our top 3 of all the wineries we visited!

Really nice winery at the end of dry Creek road with super friendly staff. Tasting inside the cave is fun and adds a special atmosphere.
Fantastic Zinfandels but also Pinot and a few others. Try the late harvest Zinfandel with Chocolate Peanut Butter Sea Salt cups...
Update: They've become quite busy. Tasting reservation highly recommended

Loved our tasting here. Our server was good, explained well. We were given a private room-great wines, great convo.
Cave and the room gave the Game of Thrones vibe. They don't have snacks except chocolates but we are allowed to bring our own snacks.

Visited yesterday and really enjoyed our time there. Super hospitable, sitting and tasting some good wines (and matched chocolate) for over an hour at the cave bar on a relaxing Monday afternoon. We also got a sneak peek of the tunnels where the barrels are stored. Worth the drive to the end of what is a picturesque road to discover this place.

We had such a great experience with Bella.First of all, each wine in the tasting experience was exceptional. Secondly, I called ahead to request space for my party of 8, as a surprise party. Everyone at Bella was extremely helpful in helping my group have a great time and surprising my fiancé.

Great wines and atmosphere!! Had a chance to experience the process of wine blending. The staff is friendly the tour was all worth it.

Wonderfully diverse wines, stellar service.

Libby ensured that were having had a great time throughout our tasting. The food was also a surprise hit - especislly the carmel apple cupcakes. Beautiful with the fall colors out, couldn't ask for a better November day.

We had a great time and the staff were all super friendly. We had made a reservation and it somehow got lost, and they still made time to give us a private tasting and tour. It was such a cool place and the wines were very good. It was a chilly day when we went and they provided us with blankets. I absolutely recommend making a reservation because they are normally pretty busy.
