Anderson Valley

Anderson Valley is 100 miles north of San Francisco nestled in Mendocino County. Only 15 miles long, the appellation is home to some of the most beautiful wines coming out of northern California. The region experiences a unique weather pattern, with some sunny days reaching nearly 100 degrees but also some days experiencing heavy fog and cooler temperatures thanks to the influences of the nearby Pacific Ocean. Most well known are the Pinot Noirs, Chardonnays, and Alsace varietals like Gewürztraminer, Riesling and Pinot Gris.
