A restored 1901 bank vault in downtown Geyserville — teller cages and all — where winemaker Brook Bannister and his artist wife pour the family's elegant Sonoma Coast Pinot and Chardonnay alongside rare bottlings like orange Riesling and Sagrantino, amid a rotating art gallery and handmade design.

A boutique, family-run Geyserville winery named for the prehistoric French caves owners Bruce and Cheryl Lawton love — under 3,000 cases of single-vineyard Sonoma wine. Veteran John Pepe makes the wines; the "up-cycled chic," very dog-friendly room has leather couches and an ivy patio. Open daily.

Winemaker Brad Beard's "mad scientist workshop" in downtown Geyserville, named for the Alexander Valley's old quicksilver mines. Tiny lots of Bordeaux, Rioja, and Rhône-style blends, esoteric whites, even orange and sparkling wines. The funky room shares a back garden with Ramazzotti; brother Grady and dog Freddie host. Walk-ins welcome.

A Geyserville collective, owned by Carolyn Lewis, pouring small artisan producers too tiny for their own rooms — no reservations, no pretension, and no tasting fee. Dozens of bottles open daily; pick a varietal and taste three side by side to find your favorite. Diavola's pizzas are next door.
