Wait Cellars
Wait Cellars produces Pinot Noir and Cabernet Franc from Sonoma County's North Coast region. The winery's Devoto Garden Vineyard Pinot Noir and Russian River Valley Pinot Noir showcase the area's cool-climate potential for the variety, with the former earning a 91-point rating from Wine Enthusiast. A Cabernet Franc from Los Amigos Vineyard rounds out the portfolio, demonstrating the winery's range across Sonoma's diverse terroirs. Pinot Noir remains central to the program—a natural fit for the Russian River Valley's maritime influence and diurnal temperature swings, which encourage complexity and balance in the grape. The Los Amigos Cabernet Franc, rated 88 points by Wine Enthusiast, suggests an exploration beyond the region's Pinot-centric reputation.
