Guthrie Family Wines is the personal project of Wells Guthrie — the winemaker behind Copain Wines — expressing his own family's Sonoma Valley terroir alongside the cool-climate Russian River Valley program at Copain.
The SORBET organic tasting at Fort Mason in August 2025 featured Guthrie Family Wines as one of the progressive Sonoma Valley producers with certified organic farming practices. The estate produces small quantities of Sonoma Valley Pinot Noir, Syrah, and other varietals from their home vineyard and carefully selected neighboring sites.
For visitors who taste at Copain and want to understand Wells Guthrie's personal connection to Sonoma Valley rather than just the Russian River Valley cool-climate program, Guthrie Family Wines offers a genuinely intimate and revealing contrast. The appointment-only tasting connects visitors directly with the family's Sonoma Valley farming story.
Guthrie Family Wines presents a featured lineup that includes Sonoma Valley Pinot Noir, Syrah, Grenache, and Sauvignon Blanc. Together, these bottles provide a focused introduction to the varieties, vineyard sources, and style that define the winery's current portfolio.
