Foursight was such a lovely experience. My partner and I stopped by in the late afternoon on Labor Day and were paid close attention to by Kristy. She was so kind, answering all our questions and elaborating on the traditional methods of winemaking she and her husband use from native ferments to champagne presses dialed in by taste. From the ambiance and from Kristy's stories, it's clear Foursight is a pillar of the local community. I'd be happy to support them just on this principle, but the wines are uniquely excellent on top of that. We went home with three different pinot noirs -- the whites were also nice, just not our personal tastes.
Personal takes:
The 2021 zero new oak pinot is a tasty chillable wine with great acidity, raspberry/cranberry notes, and a somewhat mineralistic finish.

After a long drive from the East Bay, we arrived feeling a bit frazzled—with wild kids ready to run and a dog eager to roam—but Kristy, the owner, welcomed us with incredible warmth and grace.
The property is beautiful, with a large outdoor space where our kids loved playing on the charming airplane structure. Their sweet dog, Spot, made us feel even more at home!
The wines were absolutely delightful. The tasting started with whites and finished with four Pinots, all of which we enjoyed—but we especially loved the Pinots. Kristy’s friendly and genuine demeanor made the experience feel like catching up with an old friend.
We’re already looking forward to returning and purchasing more from Foursight Wines in the future. Highly recommend for the delicious wines, the wonderful hospitality, and the relaxed, family- and...
   Read moreFun to taste the same Pinot noir wine but aged in no new oak or 25% new oak; pretty striking difference and fun to really taste what new oak does to a wine. Hoping there are more “experiments”/comparisons to come.
Also, really enjoyed chatting with one of the owners, hanging out in the shaded gazebo, walking through the lavender fields, and petting their dog, Spot. Had a really...
