Visit Us at The Hartford Winery Estate
Surrounded by vineyards and towering redwood trees, our secluded winery estate is nestled in the Green Valley sub-appellation of the Russian River Valley AVA. Just outside the small town of Forestville, it feels a world away. Book a tasting and experience Hartford Family Winery in the heart of Sonoma County wine country.
Our Story
Founded in 1994 by Don and Jennifer Hartford, Hartford Family Winery reflects their admiration for the wines, the people, and the exceptional vineyards surrounding their home in the Russian River Valley. Today, the winery remains dedicated to crafting site-driven wines that express the character of California’s most distinctive vineyard sites.
Single Vineyard & Limited Bottlings
Each year, we make over 30 single vineyard bottlings from across as many as seven distinct American Viticultural Areas. Our winemaking team uses artisan techniques to highlight the unique character of each vineyard site, producing beautiful and unique wines with a sense of place. Each of these wines are highly allocated. Some of our limited-production Hartford Court Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays can total as few as 93 cases, up to about 600 cases. Likewise, our Hartford Old Vine Zinfandels are produced in small quantities, averaging about 300 cases per bottling.
Upcoming Events
Throughout the year, we host a collection of seasonal events that celebrate the people, vineyards, and wines that define Hartford Family Winery. Whether you're joining us for a relaxed afternoon at the estate or a special winemaker dinner, we look forward to welcoming you.
