Demuth Winery
Chris and Lyn Demuth farm 8 acres of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in the hills north of Boonville in the Anderson Valley. The vines, now 19 years old, are planted at 1,600 feet, on of the highest vineyards in the region. The Pinot Noir clones are Pommard and Wadenswil. Small quantities of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are made under the Demuth label, but most of the grapes are sold to boutique wineries such as Adrian Fog, Ant Hill Farms, Skewis and Whitethorn. Tours and tasting are by appointment. The wines are sold directly to visitors and through the website.
