About Navarro Vineyards
Navarro Vineyards is the most historically significant and personally beloved wine estate in the Anderson Valley. Ted Bennett and Deborah Cahn, back-to-the-land pioneers who purchased the Philo Highway 128 property in 1974, spent fifty years proving that Mendocino County's sheltered inland valleys could produce world-class Gewürztraminer, Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Chardonnay in a style of genuine elegance and food-first restraint. Set among some of the valley's best vineyard views, Navarro is an Anderson Valley icon with a wide varietal range and a picnic-friendly setting.
The commitment to organic farming, established from the first vintage and maintained continuously for five decades, produces grapes of genuine purity that Navarro's minimal-intervention winemaking translates directly to the glass without commercial polish or correction. The Gewürztraminer in particular is recognized as one of California's finest expressions of this Alsatian variety: dry, floral, spiced, and showing the genuine cool-climate Anderson Valley character that the morning fog and afternoon warmth of the Navarro River corridor consistently produces.
The Navarro tasting experience is genuinely unique in California wine: complimentary tasting, daily walk-ins, dogs and families warmly welcomed, picnic grounds with the Anderson Valley view, and prices that reflect the winery's lifelong commitment to making genuinely good wine accessible to everyone who loves it. The Verjus (unfermented grape juice) and grape juices sold for non-drinkers and children complete a hospitality philosophy that has made Navarro one of California wine country's most genuinely beloved destinations.
