Surrounded by Estate vineyards and backed by Sonoma Mountain, Benziger Family Winery provides the perfect setting for a unique, wine country event. Whether you are looking for a location to host an intimate gathering of friends, a large corporate retreat, or elopement, our Hospitality team will work with you to customize a memorable experience for your guests.
Treat your guests to a private tram tour of our estate vineyards, gardens and barrel cave, a team building experience or a private dinner in our beautiful wine cave. While we do not host weddings at the winery, we can help you plan an elopement, rehearsal dinner or welcome party for your special day.
We are located just over an hour from San Francisco, and work with the best caterers, hotels and transportation companies in wine country. Please inquire for recommendations.

Blending Seminar
Uncork your inner winemaker for the day! Learn the art of winemaking in this fun and interactive seminar. Guests will taste, evaluate and experience the joys, and challenges, of the winemaking process to create the perfect blend of wine.
The Nose Knows: Sensory Challenge
Using elements gathered from our Estate gardens, guests will learn how to identify common wine aromas and flavor profiles. After honing aroma identification skills and learning the deductive tasting method, guests will put their wine tasting talents to the test with a blind tasting to deduce which varietal is in the glass!
Adjacent to our Barn, our terrace offers a beautiful setting for outdoor tastings, receptions, dinners or lunches. The wood-burning pizza oven and bar area are perfect for a buffet or light hors d’oeuvres, all while taking in the picturesque views of the surround estate.
Capacity: 250 guests
An open-air space with vineyard views, our Biodynamic Discovery Trail is the perfect option for reception style events. Partially covered by lattice frames, the trail features educational signs and photos, a multi-stage fountain and rock rimmed pond.
Capacity: 130 standing | 45 seated
