Scherrer Winery — Attraction in Forestville

Will at dinner our server recommended a bottle Scherrer Zinfandel. We never experienced a Zin with such a rich and deep profile. Upon further inquiry the place we were staying, Farmhouse Inn, arranged a private tasting. Scherrer is a smaller family run operation not open for daily visits. Fred and Judi Scherrer guided us through their offerings and we have been ordering a case or two to be sent back to Kansas since 2017.

We have become huge fans of the Zinfandel, and Pinot Noir. The small family element makes the ordering a pleasant experience, as Judi is always ready with a heartfelt thanks and confirmation of our order. We are excited to receive the tracking number knowing something very special is on the way to our doorstep.

We think you will too.

They offer the Zin and RR Pinot on Futures which is fun and a great deal. Fred is the winemaker and is a true craftsmen. He releases wine when it is ready rather than early to make a sale. Judi runs the customer facing operation and is terrific to work with. They are generally open only for Open House weekends which are well...

Scherrer Winery makes some of the most graceful and flavorable wines, drinkable on release or aged to each wine's plateau of yum.

Some of the wines are the Scherrer Vineyard's Cabernet for aging and racy Chardonnay as well as the Old and Mature Zinfandel. My absolute favorites are all of the Pinot Noir, each of the different locales exhibiting individual character of great distinction, which greatly repay some extra bottle age.

Wow! What wines and a great winery and a gifted winemaker, all at the end of...
