Glen Ellen Star Winery

Glen Ellen Star Winery is the most personally chef-winemaker-dual-identity-combining and garden-to-table-wine-estate-integrating appointment in the Sonoma Valley. Ari Weiswasser — a classically trained chef who worked at some of California's most celebrated restaurants before establishing Glen Ellen Star as a simultaneously acclaimed farm-to-table garden restaurant and genuine estate Sonoma Valley Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and field-blend white wine program — created the most comprehensively chef-winemaker-personally-dual-identity and garden-restaurant-wine-estate-integrating appointment available in the Sonoma Valley wine corridor.

The Glen Ellen Star restaurant program — producing the most wood-fired, garden-ingredient-seasonal and locally-sourced restaurant cuisine available in the Glen Ellen food and wine district — has earned Michelin recognition and consistent acclaim from Bay Area food critics as one of Sonoma Valley's most genuinely creative and locally-sourced seasonal restaurant experiences. The same personal conviction for genuine quality, seasonal sourcing, and minimal-intervention craft that Weiswasser applies to the restaurant kitchen guides every winemaking decision in the estate Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and field-blend white wine program.

For wine lovers who want the most personally chef-winemaker-dual-identity and garden-restaurant-wine-estate-integrating appointment in the Sonoma Valley — where the most Michelin-recognized seasonal farm-to-table restaurant and the most genuinely minimal-intervention estate Sonoma Valley Pinot Noir and Chardonnay share the same founding chef-winemaker personal conviction — Glen Ellen Star provides the most comprehensively chef-winemaker-personally-combining and garden-restaurant-wine-quality-integration Sonoma appointment available.
