Peay Vineyards is in Cloverdale on the West Sonoma Coast. It was founded in the mid 1990s by brothers Nick and Andy Peay. The brothers wanted to make Burgundian wines and eventually bought property on a hilltop above a river gorge four miles from the Pacific Ocean. They run it together with winemaker Vanessa Wong, who is married to Nick. Wong previously was a winemaker at Peter Michael Winery and worked at Chateau Lafite-Rothschild and Domaine Jean Gros in Vosne-Romanee. Peay makes wines only from their estate vineyard. They are best known for Pinot Noir but also makes Syrah, Chardonnay, Viognier and Roussanne/Marsanne.
