Larson Family Winery is a winery on Sonoma Creek in the Los Carneros AVA of Sonoma County. [5]
The site of the winery in the Schellville region of Sonoma Valley was first a ranch, then later the site of the Sonoma Rodeo. [6] The land has been in the family for generations [7] and is where notable horse trainer Buster Millerick who worked with Seabiscuit learned to ride. [8]
Larson Family Winery has produced many award winning wines. A few of these include their 2008 Late Harvest Carneros Gewürtztraminer, which won gold in the 2011 SF Chronicle Wine Competition, [9] and the 2009 Pinot noir Rose won 90 points and a Silver Medal at the California State Fair [10] and the 2008 Late Harvest Carneros Gewürztraminer won gold in the 2011 SF Chronicle Wine Competition.
