Where Valleys Meet

Meet Me on the Plaza
Three valleys — Russian River, Dry Creek, Alexander — converge at the edge of a single town, and Healdsburg knows it. The Plaza is grass and oaks ringed by tasting rooms and the kind of dinner you linger over; the hotels run from a reborn 1881 mansion to three suites above a three-Michelin-star kitchen. Park the car, let the days slow, and taste the whole of Sonoma without ever driving far. You came for the wine — you stay for the rhythm.
