Westwood Estate Wine

A truly high class, unforgettable tasting experience. First off, all the wines were superb, especially the Legend Cabernet Sauvignon. The Pinots (of which there were several) were also spot on, with just the right amount of breadth and complexity that makes a memorable pinot. The setting was very private and beautiful. This is not a belly up to the counter and get poured a few small glasses of cheap wine next to 20 other couples tasting. We had a private room, sat on a lovely, comfortable couch with a fireplace and a printed menu with our names on it. The cheese pairing with the wine was also about as good as it gets. Our host was a well educated sommelier who walked us patiently through each of the wines and we never felt rushed. If you want to do wine tasting the right way, I would highly recommend a tasting of Westwood wine at Brasswood Village.

We drove past Brasswood while visiting the St Helena area, and saw that Westwood was one of the new wineries featured on their property. I gave them a quick ring to see had they any bookings free for two people - thankfully they did and we quickly turned around and made our way there. On arrival we were met by Andrew - who is an absolute pleasure to deal with. He had our table all set up and told us about the winery, the bakery, the kitchen and most importantly the wine. All staff were wearing masks and plenty of signs are posted about wearing your mask and practicing social distancing. Andrew was so knowledgable and didn't mind us asking so many questions. You can tell he really enjoys his job. When we were leaving Andrew gave us a mini tour of the estate and a handwritten note of some recommendations for wineries and restaurants in the area as we mentioned we had just moved to the area. This place is an absolute gem!

Enjoyed my tasting with Matthew! It's a place that is tucked away within downtown Sonoma and isn't really flashy, just a really cute room where you can taste wines.

When we came, Matthew stayed with us the whole experience and entertained our group of 4 the whole hour. We got 3 wines, each a bit different but special in their own ways - and enjoyed being able to learn more about the history from Matthew - he was a really funny dude.

I've been to a few wine tastings in Sonoma and I'd say this is one of the more low-key ones that I've been to which isn't bad, but it's not as active as the ones where you get to go to a winery and look around. I'd still come for the good service!

Absolutely wonderful, Mathew was great, highly recommend. Wine was wonderful

The wine was incredible but the hospitality from Mathew was what really stood out about the experience. His knowledge, humor, and service was truly the best experience we had in all of Sonoma. Thank you!
