The first time I heard someone say they wanted to visit wineries in Green Valley I thought, “Where is Green Valley?” After a quick search on the internet I found the website for Green Valley. Instantly I recognized the names of wineries such as Iron Horse Vineyards, Dutton-Goldfield, and Hartford Family.
Three years ago, in 2008, Green Valley changed its name to Green Valley of Russian River Valley, making this small Sonoma County appellation quickly recognizable. Consisting of approximately 8 wineries and over 100 grape growers, Green Valley soil and the accompanying fog combine to create excellent conditions for growing grapes – especially Pinot Noir grapes.
