About Frick Winery
Frick Winery is one of California's earliest and most committed Rhône varietal specialists. Bill Frick founded the winery in 1976, when making Grenache, Cinsault, Mourvèdre, and Counoise in California was considered eccentric, and has spent nearly 50 years proving that Southern Rhône varieties can produce wines of haunting authenticity in Sonoma County's warm northern valleys.
The Wine Road directory confirms Frick Winery as open on Saturdays and Sundays by appointment with a free tasting, one of the last genuinely free estate experiences in Sonoma County. The Walling Road estate produces estate-grown Cinsault, Counoise, Carignane, Mourvèdre, Syrah, Viognier, and various field blends using organically and biodynamically grown grapes.
Expedia travel guides list Frick Winery consistently alongside Ramazzotti, Sbragia, and other Geyserville-area producers as a recommended nearby attraction. The combination of historical significance, free tasting, and genuinely unusual varietal selection makes Frick one of Sonoma County's most rewarding discoveries for adventurous wine drinkers.
At its Geyserville location, Frick Winery presents a featured lineup that includes Cinsault, Counoise, Carignane, and Rhône Field Blend. Together, these bottles provide a focused introduction to the varieties, vineyard sources, and style that define the winery's current portfolio.
