About Mayo Family Winery
Mayo Family Winery is one of the most genuinely distinctive and education-focused wineries in Sonoma Valley. Founded in 1993 by Henry and Diane Mayo, the winery produces an extraordinary 25+ single-vineyard wines each year, one of the largest vineyard-designated programs of any small producer in California, making it an exceptional destination for wine education and terroir exploration.
Every wine at Mayo comes from a named, specific vineyard, and the winery's staff are trained to discuss the unique characteristics of each site in depth. The result is a tasting experience that genuinely teaches visitors about how soil, elevation, aspect, and microclimate shape wine character in the Sonoma Valley.
Mayo's single-vineyard Grenache Blanc, Malbec, Zinfandel, and Chardonnay have all received recognition, including featuring in Sonoma Magazine's best vineyards coverage. The combination of extended hours, walk-in welcome, and educational depth makes Mayo one of Kenwood's most rewarding winery stops.
At its Sonoma Valley location, Mayo Family Winery presents a featured lineup that includes Josephine's Cuvée Grenache Blanc, Single-Vineyard Zinfandel Collection, Single-Vineyard Chardonnay, and Malbec. Together, these bottles provide a focused introduction to the varieties, vineyard sources, and style that define the winery's current portfolio.
