The Vibe: 
Mayo isn't a tasting room you stop by for any reason other than the wines. The tasting room is a converted barn conveniently -and ideally- located at the corner of Arnold Drive and Sonoma Highway. Aside from the convenience, the tasting room is a no frills experience. Great if you are seeking to try Mayo's fine Chards and Zins but a poor choice of you are seeking a place with a great view, beautiful gardens, unique architecture, or a place to picnic or hold an event. Those who just want to taste wines may like not having the distraction that comes with the majestic tasting rooms, in which case Mayo may be your place.
Known For: 
Single Vineyard Wines, Chardonnay, Zinfandel
Not good for: 
  • People seeking guided winery tours.
  • People seeking beautiful gardens, unique architecture, or a great view. Mayo offers none of this.
  • Picnicers or really large groups. Small groups would do fine.
  • Not a place to hold an event.
Particularly good if you are seeking: 
  • Good Zinfandel or Chardonnay
  • A no-frills experience.
  • An easy to find, conveniently located tasting room. Easy parking, etc.
