Woodenhead Vintners is a family-owned winery nestled in the heart of the Russian River Valley, California, dedicated to crafting exceptional Pinot Noir and Zinfandel wines with a Burgundian approach.

Founded by winemaker Nikolai Stez and owner Zina Bower, Woodenhead Vintners honors a legacy of winemaking passion, blending California innovation with a deep respect for the land and its rhythms. Our commitment to sustainable practices and a dedication to quality ensures a truly memorable wine experience.
