Address: 5610 Dry Creek Road Healdsburg Ca. 95448
Truett Hurst Winery and Farm is located in the heart of Healdsburg Dry Creek Valley. It’s a beautiful property with 5 acres of garden. It specializes in Zinfandel and Petite Sirah. The winery is also a farm with several livestock on the property such as goats, sheep, and chickens.
We drove for about 1-2 hours from San Francisco via US-101. We called on the day of our visit and we were lucky that they had an open spot on that day. We parked our car and walked towards the wine tasting room. My wife ordered a glass of wine at the bar. While we got the cheese, crackers, and sparkling water in their grab-and-go area. It wasn’t too busy that day due to Covid restrictions and by appointment only rule. We then proceeded to their outside patio and consumed our food and wine. My daughter got excited as soon as she saw the goats, sheep, and chickens. What caught our attention were some of the goats standing on top of the barrels. (wow! good balance)
There were a few families having a picnic throughout the property. We found out that the picnic tables were available for rentals and that you can bring your own food. My wife walked towards the dry Creek and noticed a few red Adirondack chairs near the bank of the river that are reserved for members only. Our stay was limited hours due to the next group of scheduled customers are due to come in. It prevents overcrowding and is part of the Covid restrictions.
Overall, we enjoyed the unique experience of watching the farm animals while drinking wine. And we loved the fact that the picnic tables were for rent and that you can bring your own food.
Tips: We visited the winery during the fall season and were amazed by the color of the leaves changing for fall. We also drove through the Dry Creek Road for a few miles and took pictures of the other wineries with gorgeous fall colors.
