Landmark Vineyards

A Journey Through Time and Terroir
Landmark Vineyards invites guests to savor both the past and present of Sonoma County’s winemaking heritage. With two stunning locations, one in Kenwood and another in Healdsburg’s Russian River Valley, Landmark provides an array of experiences for guests to enjoy.

A Legacy Rooted in Passion
Landmark Vineyards was founded in 1974 by Damaris Deere Ford, the great-great-granddaughter of John Deere, the agricultural pioneer who revolutionized farming in America. Damaris’ vision was to create wines that reflected the profound connection between land and grape, celebrating the region's diverse terroir. This commitment to quality and authenticity remains the bedrock of Landmark’s philosophy today.

Under the watchful eye of renowned winemaker Greg Stach, Landmark has earned a reputation for producing world-class, single-vineyard Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs. These wines are crafted using traditional Burgundian methods – hand-harvesting, whole-cluster pressing, and French oak barrel fermentation – to ensure the fullest expression of each vineyard’s unique character.

The Vineyards and Varietals
Landmark’s estate vineyards and partnerships with growers across Sonoma County and beyond contribute to an impressive array of wines. Their Chardonnays, often lauded for their balance of richness and minerality, hail from prestigious vineyards like the Sangiacomo Vineyard in Carneros and the Lorenzo Vineyard in the Russian River Valley. The Pinot Noirs, meanwhile, capture the elegant, nuanced character of the cool-climate vineyards of the Russian River Valley and Santa Lucia Highlands.

Beyond these signature varietals, Landmark also produces small-lot wines such as Grenache, Syrah, and their limited-production red blends, each offering a glimpse into the diverse and expressive landscape of California’s vineyards.
