The winery was
founded in 1959, by Rodney Strong, one of the pioneers of the modern
wine industry in California and Sonoma County. After changes in
ownership and direction during the 1970's and 1980's, Rodney Strong
Vineyards was acquired by Klein Family Vintners in 1989, a family-owned
farming-based business, and returned to its vineyard roots.
Vineyards
are the heart of every great winery and that's true with Rodney
Strong Vineyards. Rodney Strong Vineyards was one of the first wineries
in Sonoma County to vineyard-designate its wines and given it's
resources, that shouldn't be surprising.
Located just off U.S. 101 three miles south of downtown Healdsburg
on Old Redwood Highway, Rodney Strong is one of Sonoma County's
most dramatic wineries and invites visitors to enjoy its hospitality
center offering sampling of the medal-winning wines and balcony
views of the winery's working centers, plus lush lawns for picnicking
with vineyards in the background.
The winery draws on vineyards throughout Northern Sonoma County
for its Sonoma County varietals, focusing on the Russian River,
Alexander and Dry Creek Valleys and the Chalk Hill appellation.
The winery is best known for its estate-bottled, vineyard-designated
wines. More on Vineyards.
