Russian River Valley · Forestville, California

Russian River Valley fruit, thoughtfully grown.

Family-owned vineyard land in Forestville, growing Pinot Noir and Chardonnay for winemakers who value site, stewardship, and direct relationships.

The place

Two vineyards across River Road. One family looking after what comes next.

2 Bar Ranch West brings together two neighboring properties in Forestville: an established Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vineyard and the family ground directly across River Road, where our own small Chardonnay project began.

Together, the properties span roughly one hundred acres in the Russian River Valley. Some of the vines were here long before us. Our job is to understand them, care for the land around them, and build relationships worthy of what this place can produce.

The fog comes in off the coast and leaves slowly. The season here is long, and it rewards patience.

The family

Farming, ranching, horses — and now wine.

Long before our family found its way into wine, its story ran through farms, horses, cattle and ranches across the American West.

The 2 Bar name comes from that history. Today we carry it forward in Forestville, where Pinot Noir and Chardonnay have become the newest crop in a much older relationship with land.

We are not trying to manufacture a wine-country origin story. Ours began somewhere else. That is precisely what makes this chapter interesting.

Field notes

What grows from here

A family Chardonnay, the rhythm of the vineyard, and stories that began generations before the first vines were ours.

    The family Chardonnay

    What began with a small Chardonnay block across River Road became our first hands-on introduction to growing, crushing and bottling our own wine.

    Season

    Following the fog

    The Russian River Valley changes by the hour and by the season. Fog, sun, harvest and dormancy set the rhythm here.

    Story

    Before there was wine

    Stock farms, horses, branded cattle and the Two-Bar ranching story came first. Sonoma is where those older family threads meet a new crop.
