    Can see why this place is so trendy. Wine club members get access to the hill and a picnic blanket to overlook the vineyard. For non-members, you have to do a food and wine tasting.

    Grab a picnic basket, and lay out with some of the most beautiful Sonoma views. Skin fermented Chardonnay is the most unique and a must try, and their chardonnays are my personal favorites.

    I had been eyeing a visit to Scribe for a long time. I got it and was in awe of the view, the basement cellar, the cool picnic tables overlooking the old turkey stables. But the wine...only eh sadly.

    Amazingly crisp and fresh Pinot Noir Rosé á 2014. $35/bottle is well worth it. Enjoy the beautiful landscape. Friendly and knowledgable staff!

    Excellent wine with tastings and visits by appointment only. The crowd is relaxed with plenty of places to sit on a hill overlooking the vines. Absolutely recommend becoming a member.

    Very lively, a bit of a scene (in a good way), the wine's good. Pick-up parties are a blast, really fun Pino and Chardonnay. First day I visited, I became a member (same thing happened at Lynmar...)

    Great scenery, great looking events, might I say the staff can be a little snobby if you're not a member of their club.

    Love this place. Free tasting if you are with someone who belongs to their club and some of the most amazing and relaxing views of a winery in Sonoma.

    Def make an appointment early in advance. Such a pretty outdoor view, the vibe here feels different from most other places and is worth visiting!

    You have to have a reservation to taste at Scribe, on the weekends sometimes up to two weeks in advance. But it's worth the extra legwork!

    Make a reservation for tastings, otherwise just show up, buy a bottle and sit above the vineyard enjoying the view.

    Not as good as it used to be. Food portions have gotten much smaller for the estate portion . Just go to gundlach next door, whose wine rivals Scribes and bring some of your own food.
