Occidental Road
Occidental Road produces wines from Sonoma County's North Coast, drawing on the region's cool-climate potential and diverse terroir. The winery's portfolio centers on three flagship expressions: a Horseshoe Bend Vineyard Estate Chardonnay, a Russian River Valley Syrah, and a Russian River Valley Sonoma County Zinfandel. Each wine reflects the character of its source—the Chardonnay from a single vineyard site, the Syrah capturing the cool-climate precision of Russian River Valley, and the Zinfandel expressing the region's signature varietal. Wine Enthusiast has rated these wines. The lineup demonstrates a focus on classic California varieties across a range of styles, from white to red, anchored in one of the North Coast's most established growing regions.
