Roche Carneros Estate Winery

The Vibe

Roche Winery is one of the first wineries you encounter on Highway 128. It resides near the semi-famous Infineon Raceway. The winery itself has barn-like feel to it and they truly embrace the idea of being a "ranch" winery, even offering horseback tours of the vineyards. Roche has a very laid back and relaxed feel to it.

Picnic tables exist and Roche would be ideal for small groups looking for a quiet picnic spot. Public tastings are offered.

Particularly good if you are seeking

  • Good Pinot Noir or Chardonnay.
  • Horseback tours to soak up the outdoors.
  • Small place for a quite, relaxed picnic.
  • An easy-to-find winery (if you can't find Roche, turn around and go home).

Not good for

  • People looking to buy food with their wine.
  • Large events.
  • Anything elegant.
  • Guided winery tours.
