Mayo Family Winery

A producer of single vineyard wines since 1993. The winery has two winemaking facilities in Glen Ellen, California. The owners are Diane and Henry Mayo, who together planted Chardonnay in the Sonoma Valley in 1990 and released their first 200 cases of wine in 1993. The founder's son, Jeffrey H. Mayo, put the family's winery on a successful path. The winemaker, Michel Berthoud, formerly the winemaker at Arrowood Vineyards, joined May Family Winery in 2004.

Multiple red and white varietals are produced with an emphasis on Zinfandel. For 2006, a Pinot Noir from La Cruz Vineyard in the Sonoma Coast was released.

The Reserve Room is located at 9200 Sonoma Highway, Kenwood, Sonoma Valley, and is open daily (707-833-5504).
