“Your own wine, your own way”

What wine lover among us hasn’t dreamed of owning a premium Sonoma or Napa winery and sipping crisp Chardonnay, earthy Cab or delicious Pinot Noir on the veranda as a sun-drenched, green sea of vines spreads out in all directions?

And who hasn’t been brought up short by a sudden reality check—the huge expense, the steep learning curve, the stress of relocating, plus a few dozen other stomach-clenching considerations.

No need to sell the house quite yet. Sonoma Grapemasters has a better idea. You stay put, make a barrel or more of your own premium Russian River wine at our custom-crush winery, keep your day job, keep your marriage intact, and drink great wine with your own label on the bottle and your own personally produced vintage inside.

At Sonoma Grapemasters (SGM) we do it with you from vine to bottling line—not for you. Through our connections with top growers in Sonoma and Napa we help source your fruit and purchase it as part of our all-inclusive fee. With the expert guidance of our staff, from winemaker to cellar technicians, you participate in every phrase of the process at our state-of-the-art winemaking facility in the heart of West Sonoma’s Russian River region. Hands-on, or via the Internet and emails—or both, it’s up to you. Want to know more? Just download our SGM Brochure. It lays out the cost, the quantity, and the process.

Life’s too short to drink bad wine. That you already know. But we believe it’s also too short to drink fine wine that’s not made exactly in the style of your choice, since you now have the option through Sonoma Grapemasters to do your own premium wine, your own way.
