GlenLyon Vineyards & Winery is also our home. We live on a little over twenty acres in Sonoma Valley's Historic Valley of the Moon just off Bennett Valley Road in Glen Ellen. All the grapes that go into our Syrah and Syrah Port are grown on the property, hand-tended and made into wine on the estate.

We live on the premises with our closest neighbors: wild boar, red fox, coyote, hawks, turkey vultures, skunks, raccoons, owls, quail and deer. The electric fences surrounding the vineyards keep most of those critters away from the grapes, but the real challenge are the barn swallows who love to feast on the ripening clusters and the wild turkeys who fly over the fences just before harvest to munch on our grapes. Hunters with proper licenses please apply.

The Ghost of Diarmid O'Duibthne sometimes can be seen walking amongst the vines at GlenLyon. He's most often spotted, late at night and in the wee hours of the morn accompanying Dionysos, Greek God of Wine, Fertility and Theatre.

Unfortunately, because of our local CC&R's and our permit restrictions, we can have no tours or tasting at GlenLyon. You can, however, have any of our phenomenal wines shipped directly to you.
