The Most Impressive Architecturally Stunning Wineries

As someone who has visited upwards of 400 wineries over the years, the ones that I find most memorable typically are wineries with both amazing wines and a stunningly beautiful setting. With my love for Architecture (my father is a Landscape Architect) and my love for wineries, this post shares some of my favorite experiences at the most impressive architecturally stunning wineries!

Alton Wines

Alton Wines in Walla Walla deserves a spot on the most impressive architecturally stunning wineries with it’s modern and chic decor. Their tasting room, designed by goCstudio, is elegant yet rustic and casual but luxurious. This beautiful spot has views of the farm, vineyards, mountains, and sky which pairs great with a glass of Alton Wines’ amazing selection of blends.

If you’re looking for one of the most beautiful wineries in Sonoma be sure to plan a trip to Three Sticks Wines in downtown Sonoma. Designed by Ken Fulk this winery and it’s beautiful setting and lovely wines will surely impress you! 

To reinvent the interior of The Adobe, Three Sticks looked to the incredible talent of Ken Fulk, a designer internationally known for creating one-of-a-kind living spaces and events that marry the past and the present. Ken’s eclectic and modern style coupled with The Adobe’s rich history create a gorgeous juxtaposition.

Landscape Architect Penney Magrane fused past and present, incorporating modern, artful notes while preserving many of the historical plantings and even incorporating design elements from the original Helen Van Pelt garden design.
