Stone Edge Farm sits on the western edge of Sonoma Valley and features 16 acres of
organically farmed vineyards, vegetable gardens and olive trees. The entire estate is
powered by an innovative system of solar panels, batteries and a hydrogen fuel cell
allowing it to produce its own clean energy. The winery also has a contemporary
restaurant in downtown Sonoma where multi-course dinners are served four nights
a week in an outdoor dining room.
This world-class winery was founded by Mac McQuown in 2004 along with
his friend and previous winemaking associate, Jeff Baker, who has brought his
expertise along with a small mountain vineyard to the project. Today, Stone
Edge Farm Estate Vineyards & Winery farms 18 acres of vineyard on Moon
Mountain and 4.5 acres in Sonoma Valley at the Stone Edge Farm property.
Under the guidance of legendary viticulturist, Phil Coturri, the vineyards are
farmed organically adhering to the highest environmental standards. With over
40 years of experience in farming and making wines, the team is committed to
crafting world class wines, created from classic Bordeaux grape varieties.
The winemaker, Jeff Baker, believes that wine is food and should be paired har-
moniously and enjoyed with other delicious foods. From each vintage, they
produce three estate-grown wines, equivalent to a grand vin, second vin, and a
white Bordeaux. Their signature Cabernet Sauvignon is structured for extended
aging, the Surround Red Bordeaux Blend invites earlier consumption, and the
Sauvignon Blanc is crafted in a Bordeaux Blanc style.
