Tasting Room

Located in the heart of Mendocino County wine country, BARRA of Mendocino winery is located approximately 2 hours north of San Francisco, just off Highway 101. ($10 per person tasting fee applies and is refunded with any wine purchase).
Set on 50 acres of beautiful vineyard surroundings planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel and Pinot Noir, the Barra winery is an architectural phenomenon that dates back to the 1970’s. The sprawling 5,000 square foot tasting room highlights 40 foot ceilings, a circular tasting bar, and indoor fountain.
We invite you to bring a lunch and spend a relaxing afternoon in our beautiful gardens. And motor homes are always welcome in our large parking lot. We are also kid and (good) doggy friendly, so please feel free to bring your four-leggers with you when you stop by.
