This is a beautiful place to visit, on the side of a hill surrounded by grape vines and Redwood trees. Tastings are in the front yard under a tree on a board between 2 barrels. The sign said reservations required, but we asked nicely and they let us. If it's busy, they'll probably say no as that wouldn't be fair to the people who made a reservation. The wine was also quite delicious. Particular favorites were the Pino and the chardonnay (and I don't care for chardonnay).

Take your time to get there, look around and appreciate what this place is. A biodynamic / organic winery set on 18 acres and the tasting (managed by Sue and her beautiful Saluki "Toots") Sue knows the land, the grape, and the product as well as she knows herself. The wines are great, and the price of a bottle comes off the $10 tasting cost - so take advantage. The Grenache was a really nice wine but my favorite was the Zin. It doesn't have the bite of a traditional Zinfandel, and there was a light residual sweetness that was uncommon, but really welcoming, Just like the place itself.

This was my favourite winery on the Napa-Sonoma tour. Low-key and hidden in the woods. The owner is a very nice woman and we had a chat and tasted 4 wines.

We had a fun tasting at Porter-Bass. A beautiful day and excellent wine. The owners were very welcoming and interesting to talk to. A low key, exceptionally good experience! Highly recommended.

This is the only winery I felt compelled to write a review of. It stands out. Don't go it you expect a souvenir shop and a bunch of tasting tables, there is none of that. There is an owner lady who's a real pleasure to talk with, there is mind blowingly beautiful scenery around, and there is good wine... which to me is exactly how it should be.
