Barber Cellars

is a family-owned boutique winery located in Petaluma, California, in the heart of Sonoma County’s Petaluma Gap wine region. Founded by Michael and Lorraine Barber in 2007, the winery was created from a passion for producing handcrafted, honest wines that showcase the unique character of small vineyard sites. What began as a personal winemaking project has grown into a respected micro-winery known for its dedication to quality, sustainability, and traditional techniques.

Barber Cellars specializes in estate-grown, small-production wines made from organically farmed vineyards throughout Sonoma County. The winery focuses on dry-farmed grapes grown without herbicides or pesticides, with each grape carefully hand-picked and sorted. Its portfolio includes Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay blends, and unique red blends that highlight the complexity of Sonoma’s diverse terroirs. The winemaking approach emphasizes minimal intervention, natural fermentation, and preserving the authentic expression of each vineyard and vintage.

Visitors can enjoy tasting experiences at the downtown Petaluma tasting room, where guests can sample handcrafted wines in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Private vineyard experiences are also available, allowing visitors to explore the family’s vineyards and learn more about their farming and winemaking philosophy.

With its commitment to organic farming, artisan production, and family hospitality, Barber Cellars offers a genuine Sonoma County wine experience. Its elegant, food-friendly wines reflect the passion, patience, and craftsmanship behind every bottle.
