Updated: Jan 12

Ambiance

  • Ram’s Gate sits on a hill overlooking the San Francisco Bay.

  • It’s your gateway to Sonoma and the Carneros AVA.

  • Superlatives are generally used to describe this wine tasting mecca:

  • Exceptional, phenomenal, stunning, spectacular, magnificent, breathtaking, peaceful

  • Top notch, wow spot, like a glamorous hotel, romantic, refined—–a destination point.

  • Soak in the aesthetics- massive marble bar, vaulted ceiling, comfy seating, mamouth fireplace, airy entryway, high-end kitchen, open air layout.

  • Decor/architecture is on trend: farmhouse goes modern goes rustic goes corporate.

  • Ample parking is adjacent to an exquisite line of mature olive trees.

  • White umbrellas shade you on the Terrace.

  • Retractable doors give you an indoor/outdoor feel.

  • A man made pond, stunning view, adirondack chairs, blowing in the breeze willow tree, butterflies playing among the lavender is your setting for a picnic.

  • While tasting you will most likely hear speeding car sounds coming from Sonoma Raceway.

  • I love the ambiance at this winery during the holidays.
