Welcome To The Family

/

Welcome to the family Petrified Forest Vineyards! Situated in eastern Sonoma on a seventy-four acre ranch in the Knights Valley AVA, Petrified Forest Vineyards is a family owned winery started by Ken and Susan Piters. They bought the land in 1987, which was previously planted with Sauvignon Blanc, and in the 1990s, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon vines were added to the property. The Piters released their first vintage in 2009, which promptly won a gold medal from the San Francisco Chronicle and haven't looked back since. They make wine with one mission—to create exceptional ultra-premium wines from the Knights Valley appellation by being uncompromising at all stages, from the vine to the bottle.  We hope you enjoy the care and craftsmanship that go into every bottle of Petrified Forest Vineyards wine!
