About Cronin Vineyards

Cronin was a Woodside cult in miniature: Duane Cronin made tiny lots of Chardonnay in his home cellar from the 1980s onward, bottlings from top Santa Cruz Mountains and coastal vineyards that critics ranked with California's best while production stayed almost implausibly small. The garage-scale excellence made Cronin a connoisseurs' password and a mountain legend. Small house, tall reputation.

The tasting room address is 11 Old La Honda Rd, Santa Cruz Mountains. Plan around the schedule: By appointment only. Required. Tasting fees run from $20. Accessible entry is reported at this tasting room, and the winery can confirm specifics before you arrive. The surrounding Santa Cruz Mountains region is known for Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Cabernet, which shapes what most tasting rooms here pour. Hours and tasting formats change with the season, so a quick call to (650) 851-1452 before you go is worth the minute.
