S.R. Tonella Cellars

S.R. Tonella Cellars sits in a red barn next to a white Victorian home on Chadbourne Road in Suisun Valley. Lisa, who grew up sorting cherries and peaches for the family fruit stand, now tends vineyards across the valley. Pinot Noir grows on the estate vineyard on the south side of the valley. Upper Valley Vineyard, planted in 2015, holds Petite Sirah on the valley floor and Zinfandel on the hillside. The program centers on Pinot Noir, Petite Sirah, and Zinfandel, with Eclipse Pinot Noir as the signature wine. The family also grows and presses olives for oil. Tastings happen Friday through Monday, 11am to 4pm, on a lawn shaded by a 100-year-old walnut tree. Wine club members access private tastings, promotions, and special events.
