Known for its powerful coastal winds, dramatic temperature shifts, and extended growing season, the Petaluma Gap AVA produces wines of exceptional balance, structure, and complexity. The Wind to Wine Festival offers attendees the opportunity to taste firsthand how the region’s famed maritime influence shapes every bottle.
“This festival captures everything that makes the Petaluma Gap special — the wind, the land, the farming families, and the extraordinary wines,” said Heidi Bridenhagen, President of the Board of Directors. “Hosting the event at Gambonini Family Ranch adds another layer of authenticity and history to the experience.”
The Wind to Wine Festival will bring together winemakers, growers, food artisans, and wine enthusiasts for three hours of tasting and celebration in one of Sonoma County’s most scenic and historic settings.
