Poundstone WinesSonoma, CA
Poundstone is a family owned and operated winery producing award winning wines from the Carneros region of Sonoma and Napa Valley. We specialize in small batch Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Working with top growers including the Sangiacomo family, ensures our grapes are grown using sustainable farming practices, contributing to the value and quality of our wines.
Poundstone was inspired by our proprietor Melody Meckfessel’s grandmothers. Jessie Doris Poundstone and Eula Marie Johnson were instrumental in Melody's life.

Melody's family has been farming in Northern California for multiple generations and we honor their memory and our family history each day.
