LOCATION 

ABOUT

WHEN TO VISIT

Healdsburg is located in the northern aspect of Sonoma County...just 70 miles north of San Francisco and 55 miles west of Napa.

Healdsburg is a small, perfect, wine-country destination town that is home to three of the most prominent and award-winning wine regions in the world: the Russian River, Dry Creek & Alexander Valley AVAs.

There is no perfect time to visit wine-country. Whether a warm day beckons you to outdoor-seating or a cold, rainy day draws you inside a cozy tasting room, you can't go wrong.  

Fall? Town is bustling with harvest.

Spring? New vintages have just been released, the valleys are green and the flowers are in full bloom.

Summer? Enjoy bottles of rosé and play some bocce with friends.

Winter? The town is quieter and reservations are easier to acquire.
