Azari Vineyards & Winery

What a wonderful place! We stayed in their AirBnB and got to explore the premises and had wine tasting at the winery. Hosts are incredibly nice and hospitable. Winery is beautiful with gorgeous views and delicious wine. Cyrus made us pizza from scratch in brick oven. Everything is clean and they are following COVID guidelines carefully. At this point you have to make an appointment in advance. We are hoping to come back soon and bring friends. Definitely recommend adding this place to your exploration of wine country.

Loved Azari Vineyards!! The wines were terrific. I loved the rose and my husband loved the Pinot Noir. The Shiraz was also lovely. Maritza was terrific and lead us through the tasting and we loved our conversations. She was so nice and since we were the first ones of the day she was even nice enough to take our photograph a few spots. The vineyard grounds were gorgeous!!! We will definitely come back when we are in Nor Cal and I'm hoping they will have some branded coasters and glasses for purchase Oh! And I can't forget their vineyard dog Sky!! She was the first to greet us and she is so well behaved and even came over and took a picture with us!

This is an amazing winery to visit! High quality wine and great people in a beautiful location with rolling hills all around. Plus they have fresh brick oven pizza with the tasting on the weekends! We joined their club after our first visit and will probably be members for life. Cyrus and Kaveh are extremely kind - they even got us a separate pizza cutter for our vegetarian pizza during a busy tasting day. This is a very personalized, friendly environment with good food, wine, and views. Always a good day to visit our friends at Azari :)

Amazing wine and amazing time today!!! We attended a private party there today. The weather was fantastic. Friendly staff and romantic setting. This winery is very close to San Francisco. We did not have to deal with the usual heavy traffic of Napa valley during weekend

I love, love, LOVE a day at Azari! Lovely hosts, great wine, delicious wood fired pizza, and stunning scenery. I love that they have Airbnb rooms now, adorable, and yup, I would stay there a week and explore the rest of Petaluma! But so far, I've never made it past Azari - why go anywhere else? Love it!

My friend and I went here over the weekend for a tasting and it wasn't completely how we expected. The woman pouring for us was great and the wine wasn't too bad. However it was incredibly confusing to find the winery! We're both local to Petaluma too but there was zero signs that we saw saying Azari Vineyards to let us know where we were. And then there's supposedly a daily code you need to enter the gate? But no one told us that in advance and we never would've received it if I didn't call saying we were lost. It definitely should be posted online or in your booking confirmation that there's a residential iron gate you have to go through with a daily code and to call etc. otherwise how do you know?! The experience to just find the winery definitely put a little damper on our tasting, otherwise it's a beautiful spot and decent wine

The grounds and wine buildings are stunning, the wines are good, and the descriptions given by the staff were very informative. I especially enjoyed the Shiraz and it's history. I also appreciated the relaxed atmosphere (vs Napa mania). That said, this winery has so much more potential. 1. The Petaluma Gap is blustery and several umbrellas, including ours, launched through the air during our tasting. This is a liability. Purchase rectangular sun coverings and ditch the umbrellas. 2. Our table was unstable. 3. The meat/cheese board was delicious, but we were not given any description of what was on it. This is also an opportunity to sell the products served. 4. The website mentioned wood fired pizzas and we were looking forward to that, but none were being served. 5. While I appreciate not being rushed, our empty glasses sat quite a while with no attention between pours. 5. Signage is poor. Our driver deposited us at the first building, but that is the owner's home (Sorry for the knock!) We walked to the next building, but that is where wine production happens. Finally we came to the tasting area. All should be signed. Again, this is a lovely winery I am happy to have visited. With a few improvements, it could be exceptional.

Beautiful location and delicious wine! A hidden gem just a short drive from Petaluma
