St. Francis runs one of Sonoma's most committed wine club programs—stay loyal long enough and they'll dedicate an actual vine to you in their vineyard, complete with a plaque. Their Cabernet bottlings pull fruit from wildly different terroirs (cool Russian River Valley, volcanic Moon Mountain, rocky Rockpile) and price accordingly at $75+. The food-and-wine pairings get consistent praise for thoughtful execution.

About

St. Francis owns estate vineyards across three distinct Sonoma AVAs—Russian River Valley, Moon Mountain District, and Rockpile—and bottles single-vineyard Cabernets that showcase each site's personality. Their Lagomarsino vineyard in Russian River Valley produces a richer, chocolate-and-espresso style, while their Moon Mountain fruit goes herbal and structured with graphite minerality. The Rockpile bottling, from Sonoma's smallest AVA, leans toward dusty tannins and savory spice. Long-term wine club members get a vine dedicated to them in the actual vineyard with a mounted plaque—the kind of gesture that builds genuine loyalty. The property offers multi-course food pairings that get high marks for both wine selection and kitchen execution.
