Located in the Anderson Valley, The Madrones is the vision of designer and lifestyle entrepreneur Jim Roberts. The Mediterranean compound serves as a community outpost for local artisans; home to four vintners (Bink Wines, Drew Family Cellars, Knez Winery, and Signal Ridge), a rural lifestyle shop, a wood fired Pizzeria (Stone & Embers) opening late summer 2013, several estate guest quarters, a culinary kitchen garden for local produce, serene courtyards and carefully manicured English gardens. The Madrones and its artisan partners have created the Anderson Valley definition of an Italian “Agriturismo”, a destination that offers a slice of localized country living with a focus on the region’s wine, food, arts and beauty. Located just outside of Philo, guests are welcome to visit the property and the four tasting rooms Thursday through Monday from 10–5pm. Please visit the website for a list of seasonal events and classes held at the property or if you would like to make a reservation for one of Estate Guest Quarters. www.themadrones.com, 707.895.2955 |

Anderson Valley lies just north of the Russian River Valleys and is the vibrant heart of the County’s renowned wine region. With a climate that is tempered by cool marine air, steep hills and mountains surround the picturesque valley floor. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, maintaining the community’s authentic rural traditions. World class wines are produced in wineries scattered throughout the lush region. Many people liken Anderson Valley to the Napa Valley of decades ago, when the crowds were thin, wine tastings were complimentary and winemakers were around to share the knowledge of their craft. |
