“Warnecke Ranch is the love of my life, and when you love something, you want to do everything with it, from grapes to wine!”

Winemaker + Founder
Alice Warnecke Sutro
In 2010, Alice made the commitment to live and work at Warnecke Ranch and Vineyard. She promised herself to never let go of her art making passion while doing so. It has taken many years to find a path that integrates these passions. It remains an elusive goal, but one worthy of dedication, hard work and courage. SUTRO Wine Co. is the vehicle through which Alice communicates her creativity, a living project intertwining grape growing, small scale wine production, creative marketing, authentic hospitality and artistic vision.
Where the Wine is Made
About
SUTRO Wine Co.
Vine to Bottle Volcanic Wine, Woman founded, owned and operated. Founded by Alice Warnecke Sutro in 2012, the grapes are exclusively farmed by Alice’s family at Warnecke Ranch and Vineyard located on Chalk Hill Road in Alexander Valley, Sonoma County. Alice is the first in her family to produce vineyard-designated estate wines from this unique terroir.
Her philosophy of minimal intervention winemaking combined with restrained use of new oak allows the volcanic terroir to shine through in the glass. Complex aromas, elegant tannins and racy acidity are hallmark attributes for SUTRO.
