The Winemaker's Estate Tour & Lunch
At Robert Young Estate Winery, the day builds toward a place most guests never see: Gertrude’s Grove, tucked into a secluded rise above the vineyards. The journey begins with Robert Young II guiding you through the estate by tractor, sharing the history behind the vineyards his family has farmed since 1858. From there, Winemaker Matt Michael brings you into the cellar for a side-by-side barrel tasting, walking through how oak and time shape each vintage, while scenic stops along the estate pour limited-production and reserve wines. At the Grove, enjoy a gourmet style box lunch unfolds accompanied by reserve wines, and the afternoon closes with a tasting of library wines drawn from the family cellar.
Tractor Tour & Lunch With Rob | Sep 23-25 | Wed-Fri
Offered exclusively for three days during Access Alexander Valley Wine Week, September 23–25, this special pop-up experience is available at a promotional price.
Join Robert Young II, a fifth-generation family member, for a one-of-a-kind vineyard tour and tasting. Travel by tractor through the vineyards while enjoying guided tastings at scenic stops along the way.

The experience concludes at the family’s Scion House tasting room with a picnic-style lunch paired with Robert Young wines and sweeping views of Alexander Valley.
